Down Syndrome UK | Positive About Down Syndrome

Positive about Down syndrome is created by parents to show the reality of what life looks like as parent to a child or young person with Down syndrome, we are here to answer any questions, provide information and support, so please get in touch if we can help you at all!

Positive about Down syndrome provides information and support to new and expectant parents of a little one with Down syndrome.

We have amazing online support for our families, we know how important it is for them to have access to accurate contemporary information and so provide our book #NobodyToldMe the truth about Down syndrome to families and literature to maternity units.

We have online early development groups for our preschoolers, baby Makaton signing courses for new parents and Makaton training for members’ nurseries/childminders. We also offer training and resources to maternity units.

We believe every parent should receive the best possible care and support.

We believe the arrival of every baby with Down syndrome should be celebrated.

We believe every child with Down syndrome should be given every opportunity to flourish and thrive.
