A law that treats us differently because of our characteristics doesn’t meet 2024 standards. Yet we have a law that does just that after 24 weeks of pregnancy where abortion can still be offered up to birth if Down syndrome is confirmed.

We're ready to support the #EqualityAt24 campaign! Sir Liam Fox's #NC34 amendment which attempts to address outdated and discriminatory practices associated with Down syndrome
We support #EqualityAt24 Sir Liam Fox's #NC34 amendment addresses outdated and discriminatory practices, and if successful would mean that pregnant women will no longer be offered abortions after 24 weeks or later purely on the basis that the baby has Down syndrome.
What a moment in history - the amendment will only create the change we have highlighted. No other rights are affected. It is time for #EqualityAt24@LiamFox
‘……we have passed 2 landmark pieces of legislation - the British Sign Language Act and the #DownSyndromeAct.’
This is an epic achievement. We’re proud to work with @liamfox@GillianKeegan@mariacaulfield@DHSCgovuk & grateful for overwhelming support.

@GillianKeegan Thank you @GillianKeegan for your support and for listening to the voices of people in the Down syndrome community who have campaigned so hard for the specific health and learning profiles to be better understood and supported. This is a great start.
