Why support Down’s Syndrome Scotland?
We want to help everyone with Down’s syndrome reach their fullest potential through every age and stage of life. We know that one of the best ways of doing this is by supporting families and carers.
As a small, committed charity we want to ensure we reach every community in Scotland that needs us, by not only providing support, services and training but also calling out injustice and inequality.
By taking part in the Scottish Half Marathon, you can help us make amazing things happen for people with Down’s syndrome living in Scotland.
