BRADFORD’S Down Syndrome Training & Support Service marked World Down Syndrome Week with an open day.
It opened its doors at its Bingley base at the Pamela Sunter Centre in Whitley Street to sell refreshments, crafts, gifts and second hand goods.
The group also sold a number of paintings by local artist Les Burrows and members of its Wish Club.
The charity’s founder, Dr Wendy Uttley, has also just published a set of ten books including many which are available now.
A new series of exercise classes for adults with learning disabilities also starts next month at the Energy Mill in Shipley.
The classes have been put together by Sam Murray, a Sports studies student at Keighley College who happens to have Down Syndrome, and Elliot Scott, a third year student studying sport at Leeds University.
