DOWN SYNDROME GALWAY

Our mission is to provide information, support and friendship to people with Down Syndrome and their families in County Galway working towards an improved quality of life with respect and acceptance of people with Down Syndrome as valued members of their community. We recognise the importance of early intervention and developing communication ability. We aim to create opportunities for social and personal inclusion and integration across the age spectrum... We employ two full-time speech and language therapists and we employ a part- time administrator for our Voices for Down Syndrome Galway and Little Owls speech and language therapy projects. We also employ a part time Regional Resource officer who supports members across the lifespan... As well as our main branch committee, we also have three sub committees to manage our centre's in Claregalway and Moycullen and to manage our Voices for Down Syndrome Galway Speech Therapy project.
