I dont wish to offend anyone by posting this, but I wanted to share it as I thought it was Very Fab, and will do a lot to show people that children and people with special needs can do just as much as the rest of us, if given a chance.

Hannah and fellow Heart n Soul DJ Richard West are the only two people with a learning disability to DJ at a nightclub in Europe

brilliant to hear a dj with down Syndrome getting a chance

Heart'n'Soul do wonderful work - really interesting and cutting edge. I saw them do an event in Tate Modern - top stuff!

There is also Corali Dance, a professional company of dancers with learning difficulties - and I think they are all currently people with DS - they do wonderful pieces, working with fantastic choreographers and performance artists.
