It’s not Downs Syndrome that stops people from doing things, it’s society’s attitudes and assumptions. Get your odd socks on and support World Downs Syndrome Day and stop assuming people can’t do things 💙💛

Great to see this! @sianadcock @markpearson42 hopefully it will contribute towards better practice and communication throughout! Would love to see more Makaton in education.
Colleagues within the School discuss enhancing the use of Makaton in nurse education and practice in the Nursing Standard journal. Find out more about what Makaton entails and how it can be used to aid communication with service users.
