We should support the Downs Syndrome Association

First of all, thank you for taking an interest in my petition. My name is Phoebe and I am advocating for The Down’s Syndrome Association- a worth-while, London based charity. This is about an issue that is very close to my heart and I hope to spread the message during my Citizenship Coursework.

Secondly, I am going to outline what my charity does. The Down’s Syndrome Association is an amazing charity which gives support and guidance to individuals and families who need it most. They can arrange meetings, or groups that deal with the most likely issues for anyone of any age. The counselling and services they offer are brilliant quality and are helpful in all aspects of life. Around 750 babies are born every year with the condition and all of these services are beneficial to the parents of these children. 

The Downs Syndrome Association needs your donations because they are running on low funds to keep up much-needed services. Only a few clubs would run around the country, research will become very limited, and if things carry on like this, the charity will shut down. This would be devastating to so many people and the ability to rely on these services will run out. Life would be made immensely harder for anyone with the condition, and everyone related to someone with Downs Syndrome will feel the strain.

Please sign my petition to help this cause! Thank you.
