We are back for this year's Big PADS Push! Join us for our virtual sponsored walk to help raise awareness and funds.

Story

I am taking part in the Big PADS Push to help raise funds to help Down Syndrome UK reach more expectant and new parents of a child with Down syndrome to provide support and resources to help their little one flourish and thrive.

My precious boy Eoin was born January 2025 and thanks to the 'Nobodytoldme' book, kindly given to us at hospital, I was able to accept and understand down syndrome and what to expect. It also helped my family to understand their feelings and emotions when we discovered Eoin's diagnosis.

This book was truely the best thing I was given and got me through my lowest points during pregnancy and I wish everyone, blessed with a down syndrome diagnosis, should have the opportunity to receive this book.

Eoin is our blessing and we would not change him for the world, he fights everyday to hit milestone and is a true joy to watch him thrive.

Please if you can, and would like to show support, donate to PADs every little bit will go to such a good cause.
