[**Palace for Life Foundation**](https://www.palaceforlife.org/)**,** meanwhile, have been nominated for the Community Project of the Year award for their GAME ON programme, which helps people with Down’s Syndrome develop skills and confidence for employment.
This culminated last year with a remarkable recording of _Glad All Over_, which was performed by both the DS Eagles and Palace players **Chris Richards**, **Aimee Everett**, **Fliss Gibbons** and **Shanade Hopcroft**, aiming to challenge stereotypes around Down’s Syndrome and employment and raise funds for the charity’s work.
The first year of DS GAME ON saw 15 participants try out roles in cooking, t-shirt design, caring, barista training and music, proving that given the opportunity, people with Down’s Syndrome can thrive in the workplace.
