After two years its back.......the Down's South London Ceilidh to celebrate World Down's Syndrome Awareness Day and raise a bit of cash on the side
On Friday 16th March 2018 from 7.00pm until late we are throwing a Ceilidh in the Ballroom at the Bedford Pub, Balham, in aid of Down's South London. We have booked the local band, Fiddle Paradiddle for the night and hope to have a charity auction too. If you would like to come to the Ceilidh, we suggest a donation of £20 each. Please indicate how many tickets you would like. Tickets won't be sent out but there will be a guest list on the door. If you have difficulties donating or would like any further information please contact Mel by email. Address is: melrosenvinge@gmail.com
Down's South London is a parent-run charity supporting children with Down's Syndrome and their families. It provides a unique early intervention therapy service for young children (0-6 years) from South London and assists their physical, language and emotional development, giving them vital core skills for daily life.
So Zac is just one of the many children helped by DSL. He will turn 5 years old 4 just before the Ceilidh. It is thanks to DSL's help and guidance that Zac is now speaking (You should hear him singing along to Moana). Without the weekly therapy DSL provides and the support that the charity has given us, we would be floundering, unaware of how best to help him learn or what we should be aiming for. The Ceilidh is our way of giving something back and ensuring that other families get to benefit from the specialist care that DSL gives.
If you are unable to come and would like to give a donation, please use the following link as then we can claim for gift aid.
