Would your child with Down’s syndrome benefit from small, specialist sessions to build communication, learning and social skills?
Early Intervention Groups are for children with Down’s syndrome from birth to 11 years and their families. Sessions run in Maidstone and Margate, with small groups led by 21 Together staff and specialist input from education and therapy professionals.
- Learn Makaton signing, interaction techniques and early physical skills
- Support literacy, numeracy, self-help and social-emotional development
- Build speech, language, social communication and behaviour skills
- Get resources and guidance so learning can continue at home or in education settings
- Join small groups with a maximum of 4 children for focused support
Cost: 21 Together asks families for a minimum donation for each session, payable in advance for each block. Financial support is available if cost would stop a young person attending.
