Enhancing the lives of people with Down's Syndrome and their Families
North East Lincolnshire Down's Syndrome Family Support Group
About Us
North East Lincolnshire Down's Syndrome Family support Group was formed in 2005 and is a parent led group supporting people with Down's Syndrome and their families living in North East Lincolnshire and surrounding area.
What We Do
We offer emotional and practical support and advice to parents and carers on all aspects of caring for a child or adult with Down's Syndrome.
We regularly hold social events for our members. Strong friendships are made through these events by members and their families.
We offer regular gymnastic sessions to our members to improve their strength and balance.
We also bring in outside experts to offer training in Makaton to our families and specialist educational training, which we can offer to schools.
The group can help financially with specialist Speech and Language assessments and towards the cost of buying specialist equipment.
Help Our Cause
We are solely funded by donations. Family members often do sponsored events in order to raise funds for the group.
Your support and contributions will enable us to meet our goals and fund our mission.
