We help people with Down’s Syndrome to reach their fullest potential

Story

It’s been the toughest of years for everyone involved with Down’s Syndrome Scotland but we have been sustained by many acts of kindness throughout the pandemic.  Inspired by these acts of kindness and supported by ‘Team McConnell’, I want to do my bit to help.

I’m taking part in the charity’s 21-in-21 challenge to raise funds for our work and to raise awareness of the potential of each and every individual living with an extra chromosome.  

Starting on 1st March, I intend to run 210km by 21st March (World Down’s Syndrome Day) and I’ll need a lot of encouragement and support to achieve my goal of running twenty one 10ks in 21 days!  Please give what you can and support this charity to continue doing its much needed work.  Thank you.
