Hays Travel has named Autism NI as the charity partner for its 25 branches in the region, in a pledge set to raise £20,000 to help autistic people and their families.
Hays Travel is the UK’s largest independent travel agent with over 450 shops, all of which are given time and resources to support their local community and particularly young people. Their pledge to Autism NI will help the charity deliver invaluable services to the autism community in Northern Ireland.
We are excited to start our partnership with Autism NI and support the autism community in Northern Ireland. We’re planning lots of fundraising activities across all twenty-five stores in Northern Ireland, where we aim to raise £20,000 this year. This will support 1,800 vital Helpline calls for autistic people and their families. Our teams are also looking forward to receiving training from Autism NI and working towards becoming Impact Award Champions.Nicola Allison
