Step Right Up: Fergus and 21 Together Celebrate 10 Years at The Greatest Showman Gala Dinner

A decade ago, family, friends and supporters gathered for a special Celebration Gala, raising vital funds for five organisations whose incredible support played a key role in helping save Fergus Ainsworth’s life.

Now, ten years later, the Ainsworth family is preparing to celebrate another remarkable milestone as Fergus turns 10. To mark the occasion, they are hosting The Greatest Showman Gala Dinner, a spectacular black-tie fundraising event in support of 21 Together, Kent’s Down’s syndrome charity, which is also celebrating its tenth anniversary.

Inspired by the magic and spirit of The Greatest Showman, the gala promises an unforgettable evening of entertainment, celebration and generosity. Guests will come together to honour Fergus’s incredible journey while raising vital funds for children and young people with Down’s syndrome and their families.

In recognition of Fergus having an extra copy of chromosome 21, the event will proudly champion the work of 21 Together. Over the past decade, the charity has provided life- changing social, educational, wellbeing and community support programmes, helping families across Kent and Medway navigate their journeys and thrive.

Guided by the belief that every person with Down’s syndrome deserves the opportunity to live a happy, rich and fulfilling life, 21 Together has made a lasting impact on hundreds of families. Funds raised on the evening will help ensure this important work continues for years to come.

The Ainsworth family and 21 Together invite the community to join them for a truly special night of celebration, fundraising and hope.
