Andover Twenty1 in recognition of the extra 21st chromosome hosted by people with Down’s Syndrome. Chromosomes come in pairs so everyone has two of the 21st chromosome, but people with Down’s Syndrome get an extra one and we are named after it!
Andover Twenty1.
A charity that is close to our family. Andover Twenty1 is a Down Syndrome Charity that supports families within a 25 mile radius of Andover, Hampshire.
They provide vital resources to the local families and all money they receive goes directly to supporting the children.
In 2017 our youngest son Ailbe was born, I write a blog about our experiences as a family here . This local charity supports our son and our family. We have made lifelong friends through this community. One of the services they provide is an Early Development Groups which is run by an amazing company Lets Go UK and through this service, our son who is non verbal like most of his peers is learning to communicate.
