What an incredible day Saturday was! We're still overwhelmed with gratitude following our bucket collection in Newry, and we simply had to share our appreciation with all of you.

Thanks To Our Wonderful Volunteers

First and foremost, a huge thank you to our dedicated volunteers & members who came out on Saturday. Your infectious smiles, boundless energy, and willingness to give your time made all the difference. You truly are the heartbeat of Down Right Brilliant, and we couldn't do what we do without your unwavering support and commitment to our cause.

To the Generous Newry Community

To everyone in Newry who stopped to donate, offered words of encouragement, or simply shared a smile—thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Your generosity has left us absolutely blown away. Every single contribution, no matter the size, helps us with our mission of celebrating and empowering individuals with Down syndrome and their families across our community.
