Join us on Saturday the 5th April for the Same Chance Walk for Autism, a nationwide movement bringing communities together to support Autistic people and their families. Walks will take place at Malahide Castle, Co. Dublin, and Lough Key Forest Park, Co. Roscommon.
We are pleased to welcome Presenter and Social Media star Eric Roberts as this year’s Same Chance Walk ambassador, bringing his lived experienced as a former Special Needs Assistant (SNA) and personal connection to Autism advocacy to the initiative.
Whether you’re walking solo, with friends, or with your local community, every step you take helps create a more inclusive Ireland.
1 in 27 people in Ireland are Autistic, yet many still face barriers to education, employment, and community life. The Same Chance Walk for Autism is your opportunity to stand in solidarity and raise essential funds for AsIAm, Ireland’s Autism Charity.
Together, we can ensure every Autistic person gets the same chance to reach their full potential.
Register for the Same Chance Walk for Autism.
In September 2024, PTSB announced a multi-year partnership with AsIAm, enabling the charity to further support autistic customers and families and to promote and drive greater inclusivity in Irish society.
In addition to the partnership announcement, PTSB was pleased to become the first bank in Ireland to receive Autism-Friendly branch accreditation in key locations across the country.
The Autism-Friendly accreditation has been received because these branches meet the following AsIAm criteria:
PTSB is currently working towards achieving accreditation in additional branches nationwide.
