World Down Syndrome Day
The United Nations declared in December 2011 that the 21st March of each year would be World Down Syndrome day in a bid to raise awareness and support further research. You can learn more about it on the website of the Down Syndrome Research Foundation in the UK.
NHS choices also offers very detailed information and support to families, friends, teachers and living with the syndrome.
