As a charity, we rely almost entirely on voluntary donations. We currently need £2 million per annum to operate and hope that you will be able to help us reach our target.
If you’ve ever wondered where the money you raise goes, here’s a little insight into what we spend your money on and as you can see, every little really does help!

£10 | To provide one adult health book. |
£25 | Providing an hour of support to a parent from one of our trained Information Officers on any aspect of living with Down’s syndrome. |
£100 | Specialist support for four hours from our Information Officer or Welfare Benefits Adviser offering clear, helpful guidance through the regulatory mazes. |
£500 | To provide training to an employer empowering them to employ someone with Down’s syndrome |
£600 | To provide an assessment and report for a person with Down’s syndrome |
£1,200 | Producing and distributing 1,000 copies of our Journal giving the latest news on all issues relating to Down’s syndrome. |
£2,500 | An Information Exchange Day- bringing together local groups for a regional day conference allowing exchange of information, ideas and enthusiasm and the opportunity to hear some great speakers. |
£4,000 | A year’s supply of top medical advice which can be offered free to our members. |
£5,000 | The cost to pay for a year of coaching sessions for a DSActive team (sporting opportunities for people who have Down’s syndrome). |
