Our Group provides services such as Music Therapy, Speech Therapy and drama for babies until teens as required. We also provide support for training in schools for specific educational resources for Down's Syndrome. We accessed training from Down Syndrome Ireland for See and Learn Training for Literacy and Reading Skills and made this available for
parents, teachers and classroom assistants. We also provide access to summer scheme and youth club depending on demand. We have provided respite and supervision at events to allow parents to have a break. We have a monthly support group meeting and we respond to any issues arising and give whatever practical support required.
