Historic DS Act meeting of minds

Wednesday 28th February was a historic day for Down Syndrome Cheshire. The Department for Health and Social Care came to our HQ to consult with our members about the Guidance for the Down Syndrome Act. We were proud that we were in a position to support all our members, those who needed communication aids, and those who required one-to-one support. We were also able to create an opportunity for our #iChooseBoard to hone their skills and to facilitate break-out sessions whilst the civil servants gained more knowledge and experience about DS so they are better informed about the condition. Working in partnership with Petty Pool College and Looking forward activities enabled this session to be such a success. It was a truly inspirational day. We would like to thank the National Down Syndrome Policy Group for asking us to host this session and People Health Trust for their funding.
