If you would like to help us in any way at all please contact us via e-mail and we will call you back. We are always very grateful for additional support as it helps spread the load and build a bigger team. Fund raising events are great fun and bring us all together in a common aim but existing formats sometimes need a rest so if you have any ideas bring them along too.
We hope to:-
Raise awareness and the profile of the needs of all who have Down's syndrome. Promote a healthy active lifestyle for our children by providing the opportunities for them to enjoy physical activity and social occasions.
Help all with Down's Syndrome reach their full potential.
Advise, support and provide information for families with a new baby with Down's Syndrome. (new parents page?)
Liaise and work with professionals working in education and health involved with Down's Syndrome.
Fundraise to enable us to continue with our work helping those with Down's syndrome and their families.
Obviously North Yorkshire is the UK's largest county so part of the idea of this website is to build a focus for information coming into the group and out of it too - so whether you are in Scarborough, Great Ayton, Tadcaster or Bedale you are only minutes away from being able to help.
For instance this site is content managed which means anyone can contribute ideas and we can quickly create a web page to back up an event, news or new ideas to help all our members!
So Contact us and help us in a worthy cause!
