Emotional Well-being
Well-being is the state of being comfortable, healthy or happy.
Emotional wellbeing is about how we think and feel and how we cope with life events. It is also about how we deal with our own emotions as well as those of others.
We have produced a range of resources to help parents, supporters and people who have who have Down’s syndrome to support their well-being.
We hope the resources will help people who have Down’s syndrome to feel good about themselves and give them ways of coping when life is challenging.
