People are sharing photos of themselves wearing odd socks, and it’s not just because they can’t find a matching pair – they’re celebrating difference to mark World Down’s Syndrome Day.

The campaign, called Lots Of Socks, was first launched by Down Syndrome International who sell limited edition charity socks for the day – but now people are supporting the message with funky pairs of their own.

From parents and school children to office workers, football clubs and a fair few dogs, everyone is getting on board.
