This Beautiful Campaign Shows How Unique Children With Down Syndrome Truly Are

Sharyn Hayden

21 Faces is a gorgeous new campaign which features the portraits of 21 children with Down Syndrome. 

The campaign celebrates the uniqueness and diversity of children with Down syndrome and is asking the viewer to take a second look and look past Down Syndrome and see the individual child instead.

Spear-headed by the Down Syndrome Centre, company fundraiser Louise Murphy says they are aiming to challenge misconceptions and create more of an understanding about Down Syndrome.

The children in the portraits are aged between 10 months and 9 years old and when you take a good look at their adorable little faces, you will see how individually unique they all really are.

Their plan is to follow, celebrate and record the development and progress of the children featured over the next number of years under the 21 Faces banner – and we can’t wait to see them as they grow up!
