GHR backs World Down Syndrome Day in Galle

GHR joined hands with the community in Galle on Sunday, 15 March 2026, as the main sponsor of a special event held in the lead-up to World Down Syndrome Day on Saturday, 21 March 2026. The programme took place at Ligness Green Odyssey, Galle, bringing together children and families for an afternoon designed around joy, inclusion, and shared connection.

Organised by Ceylon Pros with Ikonic Media as the event partner, the event welcomed children from the Galle area along with their parents and caregivers. As part of GHR’s CSR initiatives, the day was curated to create a supportive space for both children and families. Activities included fun outdoor games, yoga and swimming sessions, a hotel-style lunch, parent support and guidance sessions, social awareness segments, and talent showcases that celebrated each child’s individuality.

GHR’s Chairman, Mr. Dasun Wickramarathna, along with the management and team members, attended the event and spent time engaging with the children and families. A dedicated gift-giving segment was also held, during which GHR presented gifts to the children, adding a memorable moment to an already meaningful day. The atmosphere reflected what the occasion stands for most: inclusion, kindness, and creating environments where every child is celebrated with dignity.

The World Down Syndrome Day celebration concluded as a successful and uplifting programme for everyone involved. GHR is proud to have been part of an initiative that raises awareness, supports families, and strengthens community connection through purposeful action.
