Durham Down Syndrome play/support group for families: This is an informal group for new families or babies with Down syndrome, up to the age of 10 years. Expecting parents are also welcome! Children get to play with their peers while families get together to network and provide support. Siblings are welcome and have a chance to meet other siblings of children with Down syndrome.
This group meets the first Saturday of every month at the Embassy Church, 416 Taunton Road in Oshawa, from 9:30 am to 11:00 am.
