Thanks to Portsmouth Down Syndrome Association π we were able to drop off more supplies to our friends in Poltava!
We bought enough supplies for 37 children with Down syndrome! π¬π§π€πΊπ¦
We are deeply concerned by this report in @TheTimes. Right now people with a #LearningDisability and autistic people can be sectioned under the #MentalHealthAct even if they don't have a mental health condition.
The proposed reforms would change that. 1/4 thetimes.co.uk/article/b46fb5β¦

The comedian Ashley Blaker has six children, three of them with additional needs. Itβs chaos β but he wouldnβt have it any other way. This is what he has learnt thetimes.co.uk/article/six-chβ¦
Congrats Ashley Blaker. Wonderful to see your book in print. A celebration of diversity, full of belly-laugh out loud moments we parents can definitely identify with! So funny and poignant. Would recommend this book to everyone!
Happy summer everyone! Thank you to all our families & supporters for your valued support over the academic year. We look forward to seeing you all again in Sept! πKaren Taylor Tommy Jessop Percussion Play Royal Sussex 342 Merchant of Thirst π Design Image
