Emily shares what ageing well means to her. It’s a great reminder that looking after your health, staying connected and getting the right support all matter as we get older.
If you haven’t explored our Ageing Well with Down syndrome resources yet, now is a good time.
Each resource is easy to understand and follow. They can help you notice changes early and get support sooner.

A big thank you to nib foundation, our partner in this project, for helping make these resources possible.

We loved seeing these beautiful photos shared by Down Syndrome Victoria for National Siblings Day!
Sibling relationships are so important for many people in our community. They can be a source of support, connection and understanding across a lifetime.
If you’re a sibling of someone with disability or illness, or supporting someone who is, Siblings Australia has plenty of helpful resources and support.
