Anna from our Down Syndrome Advisory Network (DSAN) is passionate about people with Down syndrome living independently and speaking up for their rights. Here are her tips:
"To live independently you need to have a healthy lifestyle.
To maintain a healthy lifestyle, I go to the gym. I make my own healthy meals and make healthy decisions.
You can make decisions for yourself and you can stand up and speak up for yourself and others.
I went to Brisbane and I went to the World Down Syndrome Congress on how to speak up for each other. It was really inspiring."
How do you stay independent and confident? Share your tips in the comments below
