The Down Syndrome Centre has taken delivery of two new Volkswagen Polos, sponsored by MSL Sandyford. The cars were presented to charity founder Peter Gaw, who has two children of his own with Down syndrome, by MSL Motor Group Managing Director Brendan Grace and MSL Sandyford Volkswagen Brand Manger Simon Barrett.
The Down Syndrome Centre branded Polos will be used by the fundraising team to help raise awareness of the charity and generate funds to open a new centre in the Sandyford area. When completed, the centre will be dedicated to providing services and facilities relevant to families and carers of people with Down syndrome. Occupational Therapy, Speech & Language and Physiotherapy as well as seminars, workshops, networking and daily respite will be on offer to families once the doors have opened.
