On Daytime, Aston was joined by regular contributor Anna Kennedy OBE from autism charity Annakennedyonline and they spoke about what’s ahead for the charity and spoke to amazing guests as well.

The first of Aston’s and Anna’s guests was Daisy Hutchinson who read a poem as well.

The second of Aston and Anna’s guests was magician Angus Baskerville.

The third of Aston and Anna’s guests was Sarah Pond.

The fourth of Aston and Anna’s guests was singer Just Jess who shared her Christmas song.

Anna had this to say after the show:

“A busy show for December’s ‘All things Autism in Essex ‘ with Aston and my amazing four guests and they are all Autism’s got Talent performers.

Our guests for today were :

Jess Hamer:

Jess is a singer/song writer from Wiltshire and her most recent song she wrote ‘Friend’ was because she knows what it feels like to let someone in, only for them to disappoint you. Jess also wanted to offer a sense of strength and resilience – especially for people like her who are neurodivergent. It’s so important to remind others that they aren’t alone, even when it feels that way. Jess is passionate about creating music that resonates deeply with anyone who may feel misunderstood or marginalized. She tries and delivers not just a song, but a message of solidarity for anyone who has faced betrayal or felt isolated. Jess lives at home with her family and her gorgeous dog Elki

We aired our chtistmas charity single written and perforned by Jess. It already has 34k  views on our charity youtube channel.

Angus Baskerville:

Angus is a full-time professional magician and mind reader. He is a massive supporter of Anna Kennedy online and is a charity champion for her charity.

Angus has a diagnosis of Autism and ADHD and what really changed his life for the better and gave him a purpose was finding magic. Angus is also an advocate for autism awareness and is on a mission to help make lives better for autistic individuals. He has been studying and performing magic for over 11 years now and his dream is to take his shows around the world

Sarah Pond who is George’s mum talked about her and her son’s experience of performing on Autism’s got Talent. Sarah also spoke about George being bullied at school and is now in a school where he feels safe and understood. 

George Pond:

George loves singing, dancing and acting and this really helps take away his worries. When he gets in from school everyday the first thing he does is put on music and sing and dance along. George has had some lovely compliments from a lot of people about his performances and would love to show AGT his passion tonight, and is excited to have the chance to perform on a big stage tonight and show the world that he’s proud of his Autism.

Daisy Hutchinson:

Daisy is 21 years old and is autistic. Daisy is a young Autism Ambassador for Anna Kennedy Online. She will be performing street dance tonight for you, she has a big passion for it. It helps her express herself and calms her when she gets anxious.

Daisy also enjoys eating pasta, reading, jogging, singing, Geology, Goosebumps, Harry Potter, Toy Story, Disney and Mamma Mia. Daisy enjoys watching Love on the Spectrum. She enjoys going to the cinema, theatre and concerts.

Daisy enjoys spending time with her dog, her family and her friends. Daisy is a friendly, kind hearted person.
