I'm Ève and friend of Liv, the mother of the adorable sweetie pictured

I just ran the Royal Parks 2023 half marathon to collect funds for Down’s South London (DSL) last Sunday 8th October and now holding a bake sale with my colleagues

Any donation you can afford will allow her and other children to access help with their development, attend classes, meet other kids and more

Founded in 1998, DSL provides vital free services to children with Down’s Syndrome and their families in South London

The children access a unique package of early intervention speech and language therapy, physiotherapy and occupational therapy from a team of highly skilled therapists with specialist knowledge

Over the last 22 years it has supported hundreds of children and their families

DSL is also a family support network, providing much needed support and information sharing as well as valuable friendship opportunities for parents/carers and the children themselves

DSL's service is paid for by voluntary donations and through a range of fundraising initiatives by DLS's families, friends and wellwishers. It is run by a group of parent volunteer trustees to ensure all proceeds go directly to the therapy service
