Downright Dads (because Dads are special too)
These pages will offer an insight from a dad's perspective. Often the father can be left behind in dealing with the news that their child has Down Syndrome and also they face different challenges - how to tell their friends, people at work, and how to support their wife and child.
These pages are written by various dads that have gone through the same rollercoaster of emotions. Hopefully these stories will help all parents (new and old alike), and we invite you all to celebrate in the many wonderful moments and individual milestones our children reach.
Want to contact us?
We have setup an email address for new dads to get in touch and ask any questions that they may have. Feel free to drop us an email at dads@downrightspecial.co.uk
