THURROCK-born young writer and film-maker Samuel Turner has added another chapter to the story of his inspirational life.

Samuel Turner has featured in a number of Nub News stories over recent years, most recently when he returned to the borough from his home in Wales to open a classroom named after him at Treetops School in Grays.

We also reported on publication of "The Autistic Side of Love", his first book which helped him to win a number of awards. 

Now comes a second true story of how award-winning Samuel officially became a very passionate supporter to a specialist school, so close to his heart after his own struggling experience with Autism, Special needs & ADHD. 

In "Treetops - A Specialist School That Changed My Life", Samuel pays tribute to the teaching and care that changed his life.

Samuel says: "I'm an author living with autism and ADHD. 

"Being on the autism spectrum disorder may sound sad and scary for anyone who maybe an author but sharing the insights of talents with the description about "Autism" is still a bonus today.

"I've shared stories that can maybe share special awareness about how many autistic authors like me can be so amazingly talented in their only special but a personal way.

"Writing stories maybe a challenging task for anyone who has ever shared their own special story from their heart, but if you had autism and love writing stories like me, you can do it from the heart."
