Up for Reading helps good causes

The money raised by Up for Reading supports Down Syndrome Education International's vital work helping children with Down syndrome everywhere.

Down Syndrome Education International

Up for Reading is organised by Down Syndrome Education International, a UK registered charity (number 1062823).

The charity's work improves the development, education and social achievements of many thousands of people living with Down syndrome around the world today.

One of the charity's biggest achievements has been to show that reading is a strength for many children with Down syndrome, and that they are able to start learning to read during their preschool years.

Alongside conducting scientific research to find out more about the ways children with Down syndrome learn, the charity publishes books, web sites and films and provides training that helps thousands of families and teachers all across the UK and in over 130 countries around the world.
