Claire's October Bike Ride
Down Syndrome Awareness Month is celebrated every October to celebrate the abilities of people with Down syndrome, promote acceptance and inclusion, and raise awareness of the condition.
Down Syndrome Cheshire have been a massive part of my life since before Ash was born. They have help, supported, encouraged and provided guidance in everything we have had to deal with.
So this October I'm riding with the help of my DSV colleagues to raise some much needed funds for them.

Our family has been supported by DS Cheshire for nearly all of Theo’s life. His week is filled with activities run by them DS Dance, DS Drama and DS 18 + activities. We are really grateful for all the opportunities the charity gives Theo to grow, make friends and have fun. The team there truly make a difference to all of us. So we thought of what we could do for our little bit to contribute and fundraise. Theo and I have a real “pet hate” for litter and both enjoy making a difference by collecting litter if we are out on a walk or in a park. Theo has also been litter picking, with his teacher, round Chester for a few years as part of his Duke of Edinburgh tasks. So we thought for Downs Syndrome Awareness month we would ask our friends and family to sponsor Theo to collect 21 bags of rubbish over the month of October. We have started a bit early (today 28/9/25…such a lovely day to be out! ) hence the photos. Thanks in advance for helping Theo to make local environments look better whilst raising money to ensure that the future of DS Cheshire looks better too. 🙏🏻🥰

DS Drama is back for the autumn term!
"For anyone thinking about this, Jack and I went today and it was fab. The food was delicious and it was so nice to be in an environment where I felt relaxed if Jack kicked off and when he got quite loud (he’s not patient when he’s hungry 🤣) Will be going back next month for another cooked breakfast."
