• Feel-good factor through raising much-needed funds to support children and adolescents with Down syndrome.

1. We require Volunteers, Marshals, Meet and Greeters, and Bucket Collectors and many other unique volunteering opportunities for many of our fundraising events throughout the year.
2. Host your own event or take on a marathon/challenge to raise vital funds. Bake sales, coffee mornings, costume days, and pub quizzes are all great ways to have fun while raising much-needed funds.
3. Take part in a competitive and fun Superhero’s Challenge!
4. Payroll Giving is an easy and efficient way for employees to donate to our work directly from their monthly salary. It is quick and easy to set up and all modern payroll systems can incorporate this method of donating. You can choose how much you want to donate, but if you give more than €250 a year (or €21 a month), your donations can have double the impact.

Leaving something in your will is one way of looking after those you care most about. But people often get comfort from knowing their legacy includes helping deserving causes as well.   

Leaving a gift to the Down Syndrome Centre will help us be there for vulnerable children who can thrive with right support at the right time. Our services help from infancy through to adulthood, improving physical and intellectual abilities, assisting each child to reach their full potential, fostering personal strengths and skills that prepare a child for adult life.

These services include speech, occupational, and physical therapy, group therapy, specialised programmes to prepare children for mainstream school and teen services.

Gifts can come in all shapes and sizes. Big or small, every gift, no matter what value, will help transform the lives of children who come to our centres.
