Rest in peace Peter. ❤️

The General Election is tomorrow. The National Down Syndrome Policy Group has launched the “My Vote Counts” campaign to help everyone understand how to vote in the upcoming general election.

The chance to spend time with each other, rather than rely on virtual outreach is the lifeblood of Portsmouth Down Syndrome Association 💚 We learn so much more from these interactions and from each other. Grateful to our members who are very much part of the team! #GreenArmy

Well done Ruben - very clear questions, not always clear answers. With 20% + of population disabled, it would be great to see some meatier statements from the parties. Whoever wins, we must hold them to account and ensure that no one is left behind! Portsmouth Down Syndrome Association 💚 National Down Syndrome Policy Group

Feel absolutely honoured to have had the privilege to meet and chat to British icon Bill Nighy at a BAFTA event! 🇬🇧 fionnathan

Glad that Portsmouth Down Syndrome Association 💚 is available to help families with Disability Living Allowance forms and Blue Badge applications. A little support can go a long way. #PortsmouthDSA #Support #Benefits #DLA #BlueBadge #SupportGroup #DownSyndrome #Mobility

The team carried out an aid drop to an elderly community in Kharkiv. The people in this community are completely dependent on aid and have no family members locally to support them bar volunteers. We exist to ensure no Ukrainian is forgotten about or left behind! 🇬🇧🤝🇺🇦

Watching the final in Spain - should be a huge game! Come on England! Rachael Ross MBE Jack Ross Tom Ross #Eurocopa2024

Well said Rosa - spending time, unpicking low expectations and setting the scene for people to show who they are and what they can do will change this appalling employment statistic that continues to perpetuate the exclusion of people with learning disabilities from society.

🌟Every 21st, we celebrate our members' achievements! We know how much dedication it can take to reach milestones & achieve success alongside their peers. Ted's 10m swim award, Jack's gymnastics bronze🤸, Max’s bravery in cycling accident, & Katie's dance solo! 👏🎉#Superstars

We’ve been contacted by a family of a young boy with Down syndrome in North-Eastern Ukraine who we provided with a tablet. We are thrilled to hear the boy loves his tablet, it provided him comfort when he was in hospital and he’s able to do his school work on it! 🇬🇧🤝🇺🇦
