News: Online Pledge Proves a Big Hit!
Published: 24 October 2011
Earlier this month (12th October) saw the launch of our client, Ambitious about Autism's, fantastic new campaign for young people with autism, with interactive online pledge board, and we're delighted to report it's all ready received outstanding support.
'Finished at School' aims to provide post-19 services for young adults with autism, in the hope that eventually the government will create a right to educational support up to the age of 25.
And as their digital partner, we were proud to have worked alongside Ambitious about Autism to design and create their interactive campaign pages and online pledge board – which we’re delighted to announce have all ready received a fantastic response;

In the last few days we have added a very simple, but effective online pledge counter tool to their site. This pleased our client no end as they watched the count of the number of people signing the pledge go up and up and prompted this fantastic feedback from one very happy client;
“I just need to let you know how much pleasure your team have brought my team by creating the counter for the pledge board. We are all glued to our screen refreshing the page, watching the pledges creep up – we’re convinced we’ll get to 1,000 by Monday! We’re all having a real Friday afternoon feeling here and the ‘pledge watch’ is definitely a key factor in that! So thank you – please do let your team know they have made the Communications, Policy and Research team at Ambitious about Autism very happy!”
Anna Marshall, Head of Participation and Information, Ambitious about Autism
And we're delighted to report that the target of 1,000 pledges was surpassed by Monday 24th October – now standing out 1,105 and counting.
How fantastic is that? But not as fantastic as Ambitious about Autism’s 'Finished at School' campaign.
