We’d like to wish everyone in our Sunshine & Smiles family a very happy World Down Syndrome Day!

Here’s what we’re getting up to at Sunshine & Smiles to celebrate…
We’re going to be hosting a parent and carer get together at 21 Co in Headingley from 7.30pm on Friday 21st March. It will be a wellbeing evening for all parents & carers and you’ll receive a free drink on arrival. Book your spot HERE.
We are also celebrating in both our cafes, with flowers to decorate and display at 21 Co. in Headingley and Café 21 @TCV Hollybush, from Friday 14th March until Friday 21st March (WDSD). You can find out more here.
In addition, permission has been granted so our Civic buildings in Leeds (Civic Hall, Town Hall & City museum) will be lit up blue & yellow on Friday 21st March in support of World Down Syndrome Day 2025. A big thank you to Leanne Lawton (mum of Sunshine & Smiler Eli) for initiating this!
