Story

We are so excited to finally have a brilliant space of our own to offer our incredible services to our members! It has taken 5 years to get here, with covid getting in the way - but we are here now! Our aim is to provide specific training, therapies including a sensory room, social opportunities, employment opportunities and work place training for all of our members with Down syndrome, whatever stage in life they are at. In addition we will continue to provide our award winning services and training to educationalists, health professionals and associated organisations. We now have an opportunity to really deliver on a whole life service for people with Down syndrome from a cracking location, as well as provide a space where people with Down syndrome can just drop in on a regular basis and hang out! It has cost a significant sum to get us to this stage and we really need help to finish fitting out the building with equipment, furniture and blinds. Thank you for all of your help!
