That Down Syndrome Podcast
#iChooseBoard and the MP
The #iChooseBoard - our young adult advocate steering - had an exciting time recently when they met with the newly elected MP for Mid Cheshire, Andrew Cooper. After the group chairman, Ben opened the meeting and read through the morning's agenda, we spent some time finding out how everyone had spent their summer and sharing any highlights with the group. The team then reflected on the previous session when the General Election was discussed, including an easy-to-read guide on voting, before taking a well-earned tea & coffee break. Then it was time to invite Andrew and PA, Rory into the That Down Syndrome Podcast bunker where they were both quizzed by the team who asked a range of carefully curated questions - all chosen by the #iChooseBoard. It was a fantastic morning, with everyone playing their part. Andrew and Rory were such good sports for agreeing to come on the podcast and for being so thoughtful and engaging with our young adults.
