Emily Potter Myth-Busting Down syndrome

  • サマリー

  • Emily and Sophie are storytellers through and through. They are the force behind Down the Lens. This isn't just a company for them; it's a mission to empower creative expression in children and adults with learning disabilities and complex needs. They run workshops and events across London, Manchester, and Hull, fostering a vibrant community.


    Yet, their passion extends far beyond workshops. Last year, they penned, directed, produced, and took the stage in their autobiographical masterpiece, 'SOPHIE '. This compelling production not only earned them a prestigious spot at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival but also the esteemed Phoebe Waller-Bridge – Keep it Fringe Award. 'SOPHIE' stands as a testament to their unwavering commitment to challenging stereotypes and advocating for a more inclusive platform for all voices.


    Their dedication extends beyond the stage. They've been featured in Cosmopolitan Magazine and won awards like "Most Thought-Provoking New Writing" at the Riverside Festival. Their short film "What Sophie Wants" won an inclusivity screening with the Girls In Film Network.
