About The Author

Sarah Roberts

Sarah Roberts lives in Surrey with her husband Chris and their three children, Oscar, Alfie and Flo. After graduating from Laine Theatre Arts, Sarah spent her twenties dancing professionally and later went on to teach dance and drama. It wasn’t until her first son Oscar came along, that she started writing and originally did so, as she found it an outlet in helping her deal with Oscar’s unexpected diagnosis of Down Syndrome. Sarah now writes an award-winning blog called ‘Don’t Be Sorry’, which she’s told helps others in a similar position to herself but also is her take on parenting, which many will find relatable. She has since become a social media influencer and spends a great deal of her time advocating for Down Syndrome, regularly talking to health care professionals about the importance of education on the subject.
