OUR ETHOS
At Cheshire Autism Practical Support (ChAPS), we understand the daily challenges that come with raising a child on the spectrum, because we're parents too. Founded in 2010 by parents with firsthand experience, we've grown into a registered charity dedicated to offering vital information and services for the well-being of your children. Count on us to provide practical support that makes a real difference in your family's life.
