Today sees the start of Down’s Syndrome Awareness Week. The theme for the week/World Down Syndrome Day (21/3) is #ImproveOurSupportSystems

This is a call for action to improve the support that people who have Down syndrome receive - to give individuals more choice, control & dignity in their lives.
