DSSGG 2008 Calendar PreviewThe 2008 calendar includes 12 colourful photographs staged by local children with Downs together with various celebrities who volunteered to pose with the children. The children enjoyed themselves during the shooting, and where happy to meet up with the celebrities. Although at times it was quite difficult to have them all looking at the same place. We would like to thank all who took part or helped in any way in the production, including our photograher Gus Linares who shot, edited and added the special effects that turned each image into a special memento for the children.
