Advisors

Within our membership...

We seek both expert and stakeholder advice in all of the key areas relevant to the lives of people with Down syndrome. We seek this advice from individuals and organisations.

We have advisory groups for specific projects as well as online forums for areas of interest, open to members.

Our membership committees also advise us and crucially provide feedback and oversight on the advice we receive from experts and other stakeholders.
