We're delighted to announce that the Down's Syndrome Association (DSA) has chosen the theme "My Friends, My Community" for Awareness Week and World Down Syndrome Day 2016.

"We know that when children and adults with Down's Syndrome are given opportunities to participate, the whole community benefits," the DSA says. ACSYL totally agrees!

In order to encourage communities to be appropriately inclusive, the DSA has created an information pack for us all to share with as many people as possible. The pack can be obtained in various ways. If you'd like to have it sent to you by post, you can ring 033 1212 300 or email info@downs-syndrome.org.uk

If you'd like to download the pack from the DSA website, here's the link:Down's Syndrome Awareness Pack
