The Curly Hair Project​
​
What is the CHP?
“I love the curly hair project. It’s helped me understand what ASD means far more than any other source.”
ASD causes difficulty ‘reading’ others and understanding social interaction. Most work so far is on the male presentation – the different challenges for females are just starting to be explored.
The curly hair project (CHP) is a social enterprise with worldwide appeal dedicated to supporting females with Asperger’s Syndrome (AS) and other autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Here is a brief overview of the CHP business model.

At Christopher Place they helped an autistic boy to not only enjoy swimming lessons but also to swim successfully. Both mum and child look forward to lessons each week and are grateful to have found International Swimming Academy.
