The Social Programme involves the opportunity for children and young people with Down's Syndrome to interact with their peer groups, thus helping to improve their social and cognitive skills. This programme is aimed at building social development and confidence, and fostering a spirit of inclusion, which will enable children and young people to enter and enjoy the benefits of mainstream life. Social programmes are ongoing events, organised in accordance with the children's and young people's needs.
