World Down Syndrome Day

21.03.2023

World Down Syndrome Day has a message for us all…

“With us, not for us”

The awareness day was made official in 2011, to make people aware of not only Down Syndrome but the negative impacts people deal with on a daily basis. The aim of the annual campaign is to unite us all to be treated the same and fairly.

1 in 800 babies are born with down syndrome with no know cause other than the extra chromosome that occurs naturally.

“Lots of socks” campaign is an annual global event to get people talking and facing challenges head on and together. The campaign encourages us all to wear odd socks which can be purchased whilst raising money. Please use the link below to kindly donate if you can
