11. What does the DSA do for people with Down's syndrome and their families?

For 40 years the Down's Syndrome Association, has worked hard to improve knowledge and understanding about people with Down's syndrome amongst the general public. We believe that this is the key to society recognising the value and contribution children and adults with Down's syndrome make to our communities.

We provide information, counselling, support and advocacy for people with Down's syndrome, their families/carers and professionals.

We champion the rights of people with Down's syndrome to help ensure they have the support opportunities they need to live lives of their own choosing.
