The father of a five-year-old autistic girl has revealed that he received an “overwhelming” response to a plea he posted on Facebook.
PJ Robins took to social media when just two friends turned up to celebrate his daughter Remi’s birthday at a play centre in Abertillery, Wales.
He said: “This is an appeal to anyone who may have time free between now and 2.30pm. My daughter is having her 5th birthday party today but only one of her little friends has turned up.”
He added: “My daughter is autistic but she is a lovely little girl and this is going to literally devastate her if nobody shows up.”
