Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Hi, my name is Marcin and I am taking part in a skydive in May to help raise money towards Ups and Downs South West so that they can continue their great work which I have personally found invaluable to me and my family. 

My son Filip was born in March 2012 and 6 months after his birth we were told that Filip had Down Syndrome. For a while it turned our world upside down with the uncertainty of the future. Luckily we were told about a charity called Ups and Downs Southwest and we decided to come to the picnic they organized in September. It was lovely experience and definitely something that we needed at that time. We met many friendly parents and their amazing children. We do not live locally so we can’t meet them as often as we would love to but we know that they are there for us.

“A SMILE IS A CURVE THAT SETS EVERYTHING STRAIGHT”.

I believe that people with DS have a most beautiful smile ever. So please dig deep and donate so Ups and Downs Southwest can continue their great job and give these special people more reasons to smile.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails.
