Shona joined Down’s Syndrome Scotland in January 2014, coming from her previous role as Day Service Team Lead with Leonard Cheshire Disability. In this position, she supported adults with disabilities to develop new skills, build social connections, and actively participate in their communities.

Her decision to join DSS was driven by a strong belief in the charity’s values and a genuine desire to make a meaningful difference in the lives of people with Down’s syndrome living across Scotland. This commitment has sustained her dedication to the organisation for over a decade.

Shona’s extensive experience in disability services has enabled her to contribute significantly to DSS’s mission of supporting individuals with Down’s syndrome and their families. Outside of work, Shona runs a self-catering lodge and is a busy granny.
