American software company AXS-One, headquartered in the UK in Watford, has donated
large amounts of office furniture to The National Autistic Society (NAS).
Donated
office furniture and equipment is a popular requirement among many charities, but
it can be difficult to acquire what you need. The NAS benefited because of a personal
link between its work and a family member of the donor company’s senior staff.

Richard Keeble, Client Services Manager for supply chain management solutions company
AXS-One, has a ten year old son with Asperger Syndrome (the high functioning end
of autism) and so felt the NAS was the obvious choice when the furniture became 
available.

The NAS are benefiting not only at HQ in London but also at services in Manchester
and Neath. Donations include a new reception desk, 37 office chairs, a projection
screen and 11 large shuttered filing cabinets.
