Charity Work
Mendis has thrown his weight behind the important Autism Awareness Campaign UK and the UK Autism Foundation. Mendis has backed the call of British musicians for better public services in education, health, specialist speech therapy, and respite care for all people with autism and Asperger syndrome. Mendis released 'Open Every Door,' a song for autism in May 2007 in the UK and dedicated it to the work of the UK Autism Foundation. The song for autism was personally presented to Prime Minister Tony Blair on April 25, 2007 and to the leading British parliamentarian Lee Scott (UK Politician).
