Epic 14,000km Roadtrip for Autism Awareness: London to Cape Town
I'm Chief Mutesasira, a father on a mission. As a parent of a Son with Autism in the UK, I've witnessed first hand the life-changing impact of early diagnosis and support. Now, I'm embarking on an extraordinary journey to bring that same hope to families in Uganda & across Africa.
I'm planning a solo 14,000+km roadtrip from London to Cape Town, crossing through:
- France, Belgium, Germany
- Austria, Italy, Hungry, Romania
- Bulgaria, Turkey, Iraq, Kuwait
- Saudi Arabia, UAE Dubai
- Egypt, Sudan, Uganda
- Tanzania, Zambia, Zimbabwe
- Capetown South Africa.
That's at least 20 countries and over 50 border crossings in my trusty Mitsubishi Shogun MK3!
While this adventure is exciting, it has a crucial purpose: Raising Funds for Autism Awareness & support in Uganda and across Africa.
In Uganda & many African communities, Autism often goes unrecognized, leaving children without the vital support they need to thrive.
I'm running a separate fundraiser specifically for Autism awareness here: Autism Awareness Fundraiser
Your contributions to this particular campaign will help cover some:
- Fuel costs
- Vehicle repairs
- Food and accommodation
- Border crossing fees and permits
- Road tolls
- Multi-country insurance
- Visa fees
- Temporary coverage of my bills while I'm on the road.

Together, we can drive change for autism awareness across Africa. Every mile, every border crossing, and every share brings us closer to a world where every child with autism gets the support they deserve. Thank you for being part of this life-changing journey!
