Celebrate World Down Syndrome Day
Join us on March 21st to celebrate and shine a light on individuals with Down syndrome.
Countdown to World Down Syndrome Day!

Ways to get involved and fundraise!
21st of March 2026 is a Saturday and we have 30 places for brave souls to skydive together across the country. Are you ready to take on the challenge?
Just like sunflowers, we all grow and bloom in our own unique way. The DSUK Sunflower Challenge is all about celebrating individuality, kindness and inclusion.
Take on a 21-themed activity – run 21 laps, do 21 acts of kindness, or something unique to you!

Celebrate on 21st March and host a “rock your socks” day! Wear your funkiest socks to symbolise the uniqueness of every chromosome.

Join us in raising just £21 to help us continue supporting and celebrating people with Down syndrome.
