Down's Syndrome Research Foundation UK

We are the UK’s only Down’s syndrome research charity. Our vision is a long, healthy, happy life for people with Down’s syndrome (DS) and their families. We understand the challenges that people with DS can face with their health, life expectancy and quality of life.  However, we believe people with DS are part of a diverse and exciting group and we are yet to discover the true depths of their potential.

We will bring the best scientific research to the issues affecting our community by:

-Funding and promoting ground-breaking medical research;
-Improving understanding of Down’s syndrome;
-Supporting the human rights of people with Down’s syndrome and their families through advocacy.
