Our new Ageing Well with Down syndrome resources are here!
2 March 2026
These resources support people with Down syndrome to stay well as they get older.
People with Down syndrome are living longer than ever before. That is something to celebrate.
It also means clear, practical health information matters more than ever.
The new fact sheets cover:
- Keeping my body healthy
- Dementia
- Anxiety and depression
- Grief and loss
- Perimenopause and menopause
Each fact sheet uses simple language and practical tips. They explain changes to notice, when to speak to a doctor and where to find support.
People with Down syndrome, parents and health professionals worked with us to create these resources.
Perspectives on ageing well with Down syndrome
We have also created a short video where people share what ageing well with Down syndrome means to them.
Explore and share
If you are a family member, supporter or health professional, we encourage you to read and share these resources. Being informed helps everyone feel more confident and prepared.
These resources are part of our commitment to improving quality of life for people with Down syndrome.
Thank you
A big thank you to nib foundation, our partner in this project, for helping make these resources possible.
