Welcome to the Cornwall Down's Syndrome Support Group's Website

The Cornwall Down's Syndrome Support Group is a charity run by families affected by Down's Syndrome living in Cornwall.

What we do

We offer families a chance to meet, socialise and share information, friendship and support. Membership is free and we hold regular drop in sessions around the county where we can signpost our members to services that may be beneficial in an informal setting with entertainment for the children provided. During the year we organise many fun days out and trips away as well as our winter party. Our new parent support team warmly welcomes parents with a recent diagnosis.

The launch of the "Trisomy 21" photography exhibition was a real success at the Eden Project on 3rd March. The exhibition has been put together to mark this years Down's Syndrome Awareness day which was on the 21st March. A huge thank you to Simon Burt Photography & The Bolingey Barbarians Veteran Rugby Team for making this possible.

This collection of 16 of our members range in age from just 4 months old to an engaged couple in their early 20's and aims to challenge stereotypes and common misconceptions about individuals with Down's Syndrome.
