Eddie Callis

Eddie Callis

Name: Eddie Callis
Age: 25
Year of the Fix: 2018
Location: Falmouth, Cornwall
Campaign: To encourage other people who are on the autistic spectrum to give art a go.

I was diagnosed as being on the autistic spectrum when I was 18.

 

For the last few year I’ve been making music and painting pictures.

 

I love being creative. It helps me focus on one thing and stops me from stressing out.

 

I would like other people on the spectrum to give creativity a go and have the same experience.

 

All you’ve got to do to get started is pick up a pencil and paper and draw a picture. And then – anything is possible!

I would like to thank the following people for supporting me with this fix:

Tony Minnion

Kyle Coleman

Caroline Coleman

Stuart Harper

Adrian Harper
