Superstar Mike's DIY Makeover

We are so incredibly grateful to long-time family community member, Mike Avraam, for stepping up to the challenge of developing and improving the storage options and audio-visual setup in our Hub's activity room. After consulting with a well-known Scandinavian lifestyle furniture emporium, Mike set himself the challenge of building some bespoke seat/storage bins at one end and then constructing a super smart 'wall' of white glossy loveliness at the other - leaving a perfect space to relocate our modestly-sized TV, ready for film nights and presentations. Mike achieved all this in just a few short weeks, completing the work in time for us to host our monumental DS Act guidance symposium with the DoHSC on 28th February. You really can't put a value on support of this kind - it's immense and will make such a difference to our day-to-day operations. So, thank you, Mike - we all think you are a superstar!

This World Down Syndrome Day, our challenge was simple: We just wanted you to get up, get out, and get active for Down Syndrome Cheshire in whatever way you could, and you guys accepted the challenge brilliantly! We are so proud and incredibly grateful to everyone who was sponsored to walk further; run faster; gym harder, and Zumba crazier than they thought possible, all of which raised over £6400!! This is absolutely incredible! Well done to all of our challengers; you are ALL SUPERHEROES!

Zumba-raising!

By Rebecca Goodier • April 2, 2025

We're so grateful to everyone who took up this year's Get Active For DSC challenge to celebrate World Down Syndrome Day 2025 - including Penny, who undertook an amazing Zumba-thon with her friends and raised £761 for DSC! This is such an inspirational story, and we feel so grateful and lucky to have the support of amazing people like Penny, whose kindness and determination help us to make a difference in the lives of our Cheshire Down syndrome community.
