Creating opportunities, connection, and support for children with Down's syndrome and their families in North Hampshire

Early Development group 829

Raising Twenty1 is committed to supporting children with Down's syndrome and their families from birth, throughout their education, and into young adulthood.

Our Goal

Our goal is to help each child reach their full potential — both socially and academically — by working closely with families, schools, and the wider community. We advocate for inclusion and meaningful opportunities that allow every child to thrive.

We believe that with the right support and encouragement, children with Down’s syndrome can achieve great things. That’s why we’re here: to offer connection, guidance, and opportunity at every stage of the journey — and to help ensure children are seen not for their differences, but for the friends, classmates, and individuals they truly are.
