Thank you to Alison, Chris, Lydia and Safiya who manned the DSA stand at Portcullis House today. What a brilliant day for raising awareness of the work undertaken by the Down's Syndrome Association with policymakers in advance of World Down Syndrome Day tomorrow (21 March 2025). Thank you to everyone who took the time out of their busy schedule to meet with the team. We look forward to working with you all more closely to #ImproveOurSupportSystems for people who have Down's syndrome. #WorldDownSyndromeDay #WDSD2025

As well as receiving information and support from the DSA, parents and carers of children and young people who have Down’s syndrome can benefit from engagement with a local support group. 📍You'll find a map of local support groups on our website, many of whom are affiliated to the DSA. ▶️ downs-syndrome.org.uk/about-dsa/our-… The groups aim to provide a local network that provides friendship, support, social events and other events and activities.
