Are you interested in having a pen pal living overseas to write and/or email?

We are a Down syndrome Association in NSW, Australia, currently in contact with the Down syndrome Associations in New Zealand, UK and US. We are looking to promote overseas communication and friendships between young adults with Down syndrome aged between 18 and 25 years.

Please discuss this idea with your team coach, parent or carer. Then, if this is something you would like to do, fill in and sign the form below and return it to :
