Celebrating World Down Syndrome Day

I defy anyone to not leave this venue without a smile on their face and a satisfied tummy after a gorgeous lunch.

Thank you to everyone involved at The Together Academy for putting on such a show of talent with beautiful singing, poetry reading, tin whistle and bodhran playing and some cool rapping.

Such a joy to meet the gang and celebrate World Down Syndrome Day.

The Together Academy is a unique social enterprise in Dublin, supported by the Down syndrome centre, that provides young adults with Down syndrome certified training, practical work experience, employment opportunities and a critical social and support network. Operating in Wanderers Rugby Club, with the support of DDLETB, the Together Academy is training young adults in culinary skills and supporting their learning in a modern, dynamic, popular training café.

Watch out for the new collaboration between Happy Out Cafe and Together Academy at the Dun Laoghaire Baths opening quite soon.
