The Axcis/nasen partnership

The National Association of Special Educational Needs (nasen) is the UK’s leading organisation supporting those who work with or care for children and young people with special and additional educational needs and disabilities. Nasen supports all staff including SENCOs, leaders, teachers, governors and teaching assistants in meeting the needs of the pupils in schools and other settings through promoting education, training, and development.

Nasen also reaches a huge readership through their journals: British Journal of Special Education, Support for Learning, Journal of Research in Special Educational Needs and the magazine nasen Connect. 

Axcis has been supporting nasen for a number of years and our relationship has gone from strength to strength. From sponsoring key events and exhibitions to contributing to publications and the SEND Gateway, a valuable online resource for SEND professionals, Axcis is pleased to be affiliated with an organisation doing such great work. 

Axcis Annual Charity

In addition to our long-standing charitable partnerships, we also select a charity each year to support with office fundraising activities. Our chosen charity for 2023/24 was Become. 

Become is a charity for children in care and care leavers. For 30 years they’ve stood shoulder to shoulder with children in care and young care leavers, helping them get the support they need. Whether this be ongoing coaching, advice on everyday situations, supporting the transition from leaving the care system, providing the opportunity to meet other care-experienced young people and share experiences, or just provide a friendly voice at the end of the phone, Become offer an invaluable service to so many people. Find out more about Become here. 

We were delighted to be able to raise £5,688 for them over the course of the year through various fundraising events.

We will be announcing our 2024/25 Charity of the Year in the upcoming months.
