My Child

If you have a child with Down's syndrome you may have questions about health, development, education, and about the practical and financial help you can get. We hope you will find many of the answers here, but if not please call the Helpline.

Many parents find that the best emotional support comes from other families with children with Down's syndrome. They are often the best source of information on local services as well. Contact us to find your nearest parent support group. You can also view our support group map to see how many support groups there are in your area.

Please view our publications covering topics such as Benefits available to you, Health, Education, and Speech and Language. There is also a lot of General information on various topics that may also be of help to you.
