DSUK is a national registered charity, set up and run by parents of children and young people with Down syndrome who passionately believe in equality for people with Down syndrome.

Our initiative Positive about Down syndrome (PADS) was created in 2017 to provide the social model of Down syndrome - the lived experience that expectant and new parents of a baby with Down syndrome crave but are too often overwhelmed with medical information.

We provide amazing online support to expectant women via our Facebook groups and have over 1,000 parents of an infant with Down syndrome under the age of 3 who access these groups providing peer support, access to experts and a range of resources and information.

We provide training to medical students and professionals across the country to ensure they have a contemporary understanding of what living with Down syndrome means in modern Britain. We also ensure they challenge their attitudes and consider the language used when speaking of Down syndrome.

DSUK provides support and information to professionals working with children and young people with Down syndrome in education, as well as resources to pre and primary school settings to raise awareness and knowledge around Down syndrome. 

Our prize has been very generously donated by Kathleen Clarke, who advises, "We were very lucky to find PADS Great Expectations group whilst pregnant and it was so helpful and reassuring ahead of Luca’s arrival. We would like to give something back to help other families."
