Charity of the Year

Downright Special is Hull Esteem Consortium's Charity of the Year for 2011.

Downright Special is a charity which aims to support the lives of children with Down Syndrome and their families. The charity holds sessions for babies through to school-aged children, creating a place for them to learn and play. These sessions also provide parents with a forum to interact and make friends, share information and tips and use the latest resources with their children - creating a support unit.

Hull Esteem Consortium will be holding various fundraising events over the year to raise money for this worthwhile cause. If you have any ideas on how you can support the charity, contact Ann Newlove at ann.newlove@esteem.cc
