Find a little inspiration and then get going.
Every year we encourage people with Down syndrome, families, advocates, professionals and organisations to observe WDSD with your own activities.
We want to see this again, more than ever in 2021!
Join the #LotsOfSocks campaign
Get people talking about Down syndrome by wearing ‘Lots of Socks’. These might be mismatched socks or your craziest socks, whatever it takes to start a conversation.
Share your story
The best way to promote awareness of Down syndrome is for people with Down syndrome to share their own stories in their own words.
