Down’s Syndrome Association
Newbury Forest FC are proud to be raising funds for the Down’s Syndrome Association, a charity the club has had a close relationship with for many years.

About the Down’s Syndrome Association:
The DSA are the only organisation in this country focusing solely on all aspects of living successfully with Down's syndrome. Since 1970, they have grown from being a local parent support group to a national charity with over 20,000 members, a national office in Teddington Middlesex, offices in Northern Ireland and Wales. Despite this, the organisation is run by a total staff of only 33 (many of them part time), and a network of around 126 regional volunteer-led support groups.

Their mission

To provide information and support for people with Down's syndrome, their families and carers, and the professionals who work with them.
They strive to improve knowledge of the condition.
To champion the rights of people with Down's syndrome.
