From 2004-2007 the NAS enjoyed a hugely successful three-year partnership with Vodafone. The partnership saw Vodafone, its staff and customers raise an incredible £6 million to fund projects to create a better life for over 250,000 people affected by autism.

Looking back we are so proud of what we have achieved in helping thousands more people affected by autism access a wide range of support and advice, and hopefully we have moved towards a world where autism is more understood. Karen McArthur, Senior Manager for Corporate Responsibility, Vodafone

With the support of Vodafone we were able to develop several key services including our Autism Services Directory and the help! programme. Vodafone also helped us to launch a series of new challenge events aimed at fundraisers, marketed under the umbrella 'Get Miles More Out of Life', with events including runs, treks, cycles and parachute jumps.
