21st March - World Down Syndrome Day Show your support and wear odd socks

What is World Down Syndrome Day?

World Down Syndrome Day (WDSD) is celebrated annually on the 21st of March and is a global awareness day that has been officially observed by the United Nations since 2012.

The date for WDSD is set on the 21st day of the 3rd month as a representation of the extra copy of the triplication (trisomy) of the 21st chromosome that people with Down syndrome are born with.

On March 21st, we invite you to get all your friends, family and colleagues involved, let’s get people talking on World Down Syndrome Day. 

“In a World you can be anything, Be Kind”.

“When you judge someone based on their diagnosis , You miss out on their abilities, beauty and uniqueness”.

Being Unique is well and truly something Amazing
