    Story

    The group was set up 10 years ago by 3 sets of parents from Belfast who have children with Down Syndrome. Over the years it has grown bigger in size and currently supports around 80 families.

    This group has been an amazing support to us since we joined them following Ben's diagnosis. They have provided fun ways for Ben to learn and develop, activities we would not have been aware of before joining them. For Paul and I as parents it's been reassuring being able to talk to other parents of children with Down Syndrome. Seeing first hand how wonderful the older children/young adults are and what they have achieved makes thinking about Ben's future exciting and less worrying. Through the group Ben will make friends for life and for Jack as he gets older there will be siblings he can talk too and share experiences.

    Any money raised by the group comes solely from fund raising through parents, families and friends. This is my small way of giving back and ensuring the group continues to grow and thrive.

    Thank you in advance for your support.
