World Down Syndrome Day

World Down Syndrome Day

World Down Syndrome Day (also known as WDSD) is a global awareness initiative that has been backed by the United Nations since 2012.

The date itself has been selected for very clever reasons; it is held on the 21st day of the 3rd month, which is a hat-tip to the uniqueness of the triplication of the 21st chromosome which leads to Down syndrome.

LET’S GET PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT WDSD ON 21 MARCH 2019! HOW? BY WEARING #LOTSOFSOCKS!

…wear  #LotsOfSocks socks,  brightly coloured socks, long socks, printed socks, 1 sock… even 3 socks for 3 chromosomes. If you do not normally wear socks, then wear them.

Thank you for  your  support.
