• Run a football club for children and adults, 5-35 years old, who have Downs Syndrome and other learning disabilities, that meets every week.
• Run dance sessions for our members 5+ years, that meet on a monthly basis.
• Organise regular big events for all our families throughout the year, eg Christmas Party, Summer Fun Day, October Disco, Easter Egg Hunt etc. Plus occasional smaller events aimed at particular age groups.
