Answer from Hansard

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Health and Social Care (Dr Zubir Ahmed)

Every child with a disability should have the opportunity to reap the health and wellbeing benefits of being active. We are working across health, education and sports to break down barriers to physical activity, including for children with Down’s syndrome. That includes ensuring that they have access to inclusive, sensory-rich activities that they can enjoy with friends, families and carers.
