Research Opportunity for those with Children under 11 years

Are you a parent/carer of a child under the age of 11 who has Down Syndrome or know someone who is? Do you live in the UK? If so, please take 15 mins to answer this survey  and/or share with those who may be eligible. 

Led by Professor Monica Lakhanpaul, UCL has teamed up with the Down's Syndrome Association and Trisomy 21 Research Society to develop a survey to understand the impact that the pandemic has had on children under the age of 11 who have Down Syndrome. They hope that this information will teach us how best to support children with Down Syndrome and their parents/carers going forward.
