My 14 year old son has Aspergers Syndrome. I am trying to find any residential holidays specifically for ASD children that improves their life skills and social interaction. Can anyone advise me ? I am a single parent, but willing to pay for such services.

Hi Colleen,
Why you do not contact one of the organisation supporting parents here in London for more advise about short- time break.http://www.autism.org.uk/services/home/short-breaks.aspx
https://www.disabledchildren.org.uk
Each bigger borrow in UK should have a package to deliver short-breaks for children.
I hope I could help a bit.
Have a good day. Please contact one/ or all organisation.

@colleen Would this be something that might be good. You can always call them, to see if they can cater for your son. http://www.pgl.co.uk/en-gb/adventure-holidays/holidays#.WHPSioXXJjo

Hi @colleen did you find any holidays that were suitable? I was chatting with the people from Calvert Trust last week and wondered if they might be right for you?
