World Autism Acceptance Week is our flagship fundraising campaign. The campaign aims to galvanise the UK to help create a society that works for autistic people, and encourages participants to support us through fundraising and awareness-raising activities.
Join us by signing up your company to fundraise and raise awareness and help us make 2024 our biggest World Autism Acceptance Week yet.
With your support, we can transform lives by providing information and practical advice for the 700,000 autistic adults and children in the UK, as well as their three million family members. We can change attitudes by improving public understanding of autism and the difficulties many autistic people face, and campaign for better services.
Contact your Account Manager or corporate.partnerships@nas.org.uk for further information on how to support World Autism Acceptance Week 2024.
The toolkit below has been developed to support your efforts.
Get fundraising this World Autism Acceptance Week and take part in a Spectrum Colour Walk on Saturday 6 April. We are in London, Leeds and Birmingham this year. Suitable for all ages and abilities, our sponsored 5km walks take place in a calm, inclusive green space. Come on your own or bring a team, raise money, get a medal and have a colourful day out.
Or take on the virtual challenge from your office in World Autism Acceptance Week, and you will receive a fundraising pack and can create your own teams!
Together we can make every step count to create a society that works for autistic people and every penny raised by you this World Autism Acceptance Week enables us to do this.
