Year in a Ballgown

Year in a Ballgown

Jennifer Gane

I will spend the 365 days of 2025 dressing in a ballgown to carry out everyday tasks to raise awareness of how exhausting and difficult life can be for autistic people who hide their autistic characteristics by masking.

You will see me in a range of different situations and places – some ordinary, some more unusual – and you can follow my progress on social media.

In addition to raising awareness about this issue through my social media and website, I am asking for sponsorship in aid of the Toby Henderson Trust, a charity which supports autistic families in the North East.
