The mums in this video and the dad who created it met online and got together to show the world just how ordinary and fun life with the condition is and how they "Wouldn't Change a Thing".

It features a carpool karaoke lip sync in support of World Down Syndrome Day 2018 and features 50 mums and their children singing along to Christina Perri's multi-platinum selling track, "A Thousand Years".

This video inspired the start of Charity 'Wouldn't Change A Thing' which was set up in June 2018. Years later the parent volunteer led organisation continues to work with its mission 'To make negative perceptions of people with Down syndrome a thing of the past'

The charity has continued to produce successful awareness campaigns, a Wouldn't Change A Thing Book gifted free for new parents, school resources and more. All motivated through love of their children and the want for positive change to perceptions. (social media links below)

The video was originally inspired by Singing Hands - a UK organisation who's videos have helped many in the group learn Makaton for supporting their children’s communication development.

Makaton is designed to help hearing people with learning or communication difficulties using signs, symbols alongside speech.

With thanks to the artist Christina Perri for her support and Singing Hands for the original concept.
