Author Kathy Lette was one of the famous faces at the Autism’s Got Talent show at the Mermaid Theatre, London, earlier this month.

Kathy, whose son Julius was diagnosed with autism when he was three, is patron of Hillcrest Autism Services which runs Baston House School in Bromley.

Children from the school joined others from Hillingdon Manor and West London Community College entertained an audience of 500 with song and dance. Madeline Hardy, 16, from Baston House sang Adele’s Make You Feel My Love. Dancer James Hobley, a previous finalist in Britain’s Got Talent and a young patron of Anna’s charity, also performed.

Anna Kennedy OBE who founded Baston House School said: “I am so proud of all the children and young people since I know how much they have progressed. “I am now working on 'We wear it for Autism' which will be held on September 10.”
