I'm disappointed at the High Court decision (bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englanā€¦), but hopeful the case is a stepping stone towards realisation of #HumanRights for people with DS.
I hope it will help change the way parents are spoken to, and supported to make their decisions in pregnancy.

Around 90% of parents in the UK choose not to have their baby if they discover that he/she has Downs syndrome.
We don't need a legal change to stop parents being offered information/advice that is rooted in, or framed by, ignorance & prejudice.

The way in which people are informed/supported right now is not ok & health services need to shift downsyndromeuk.co.uk/flipbook.html
