About Me

Winter Hill ,Horwich, UK
About Me Jake ,I am 11 years old and have Autism. This Blog is about what I can do not what I cannot,sometimes people think I cannot because I have autism ,this blog is about challenging that!I have lots of special interests, in particular running, exploring and this blog shows a small amount of what I get up to! Please be careful as some of activities I do may look easy are not , I know Winter Hill very well I can get off safely and know what to do when the weather closes in ,to keep myself safe I use high performance clothing and footwear,waterproof/ breathable/reflective/thermal layers. in layers so I keep warm and dry , I take my safety seriously and I always take care when out exploring. My dad is very experienced on the fells he is teaching me how to keep safe.I can use a map and compass, the hills can be windy , very cold, be wet , misty and boggy. STAY SAFE! check out under my link's for advice on safety from Bowland and Pennine Mountain rescue.

if you are careful you can touch some very old bones !

Black Gold!

we went a farm where we could touch the animals

Leo liked the Goats

we went to the butterfly house as well
we played on a lot of playgrounds which we found in a lot of places in Germany



the reason my dad says we needed to keep Winter Tyres on ,
the  temperature were very low during the day some days ,
this day we had a long drive of over 7 hours !
we saw some planes when driving
