Robbie's 21 Star Jumps

Robbie's birthday falls on a very important day: the 21st of October - Down Syndrome awareness month!!!

And instead of presents, he'd like his family and friends to join him in a challenge to help raise money for a very special charity - Down Syndrome Cheshire.

The challenge is to do 21 star jumps and donate £2 :)

We'd love you to share your star jump videos on social media and help spread the word of Robbie's campaign.

Robbie's been doing lots of star jump training and is looking forward to doing 21 star jumps in a row with his school friends on the 21st!

Why 21? Down Syndrome is the magic that happens to a person when they have an extra copy of chromosome 21.

Why Down Syndrome Cheshire? This amazing charity has provided training to Robbie's teachers, guided Robbie's parents through many challenges and questions, and given Robbie amazing opportunities to try new things and make new friends. They are always pushing Robbie to achieve his potential and exceed everyone's expectations.

Darcey's Daily Walk Challenge for October

By Rebecca Goodier • October 6, 2025

"Darcey is going to walk for 21 minutes for 3 weeks in October to support DS Cheshire as her challenge for Down Syndrome awareness month! Darcey isn’t one for walks, she loves coming in from school and chilling out doing creative stuff, so this may not sound a task to some, but for Darcey this is a physical and mental challenge. Please support her on this personal challenge which I know she will smash and all in a great cause."

Claire's October Bike Ride

September 29, 2025

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.
