World Down Syndrome Day 2025
For World Down Syndrome Day, on 21 March 2025, we called on all Governments to Improve Our Support Systems.
The theme for 2025.
Each year for World Down Syndrome Day, our team develops a message we ask supporters to share.
This is something that we believe needs a lot of attention all around the world.
We help people with Down syndrome and those who care for them to speak up in their own ways.
Together, we make one strong voice.
This year our message is “Improve Our Support Systems”.
