Kimba from Australia

Hi, I’m Kimba.

In Down Syndrome Month 2022, I would like to say, I am so proud to be one of the first ever people with Down Syndrome, to become a volunteer member of the Victoria State Emergency Service, here in Melbourne, Australia.

I am also so proud to wear this orange uniform and be a part of this team of fantastic volunteers, working for our community.

The best way to promote awareness of Down syndrome is for people with Down syndrome to share their own stories in their own words.
