Sara Harrysson is now, together with 22-year-old daughter Herta Harrysson, arranging a dating weekend for young adults with Down syndrome. The idea has been sprouting for some time, and now it was time, says Sara.
"Herta has started talking about finding someone to move in with and I've been thinking for a long time, so I thought let's start this together," she says.
Great interest
The dating weekend will take place in Halmstad on April 21-23, and according to Sara, the interest has been very great. When they started a social media group, many people were napping.
"It's not certain that you'll find love, but you can at least make friends," harrysson says.
Herta herself could not be present when SVT visited, but says via Sara that she is looking forward to the dating weekend.
"She's at the folk high school where she goes. But she just called and asked if there are more people who have joined our dating group. She thinks it's great fun," says Sara Harrysson.
