Scottish Autism has appointed Edinburgh’s theLane Agency to develop and deliver its new website and implement a comprehensive online marketing strategy.

The Alloa-based organisation, which is currently undergoing a name change from The Scottish Society for Autism, provides a full spectrum of care services across Scotland for people of all ages who live with Autism.

The brief will be led by theLane’s head of digital creative Darren Keegan and digital account director Ian Duncan, with work beginning immediately and the first phase of the new website due to go live in March.  

Alan Somerville, CEO of Scottish Autism, said: “TheLane Agency, who won this key brief work against some formidable competition, was chosen for the teams’ creative excellence and technical capabilities. As the longest established Autism organisation in Scotland, it is vital that we now step up a level in our marketing and communications and I am delighted to have them on board to help us with this process.”
