No problem young lady, I have an autistic brother who is 6 years younger than me, when we were young he used to phone 999 and ask the emergency services for a ps2 game that he wanted, my Dad used to hide the phone everywhere but he always found it and would call again asking for this game. One day there was a knock at the door and 2 huge coppers were standing there, My Dad answered “Is your son Stephen at home?”, “Yes” he reluctantly replied. To our shock the 2 policeman had been part of a sponsored marathon they had for charity, there was £60 extra which the local constabulary decided could be used to buy Stephen’s game. That gesture has never left my thoughts.. it was not about the money but the fact that they had recognised this and offered this kid gesture.
p.s We didn’t tell Stephen the money for his game had came from the Police or he would have been back on the phone the next week asking for a fucking Xbox LOL.
