A day care centre for people with intellectual disabilities has apologised after leaving a young man behind on a swimming trip. The young man, who has Down syndrome, was found wandering alone close to a dual carriageway near the M50 motorway. Stewarts is one of the country's largest care facilities for people with intellectual disabilities and is partly run by volunteers. When they got back to their day centre, volunteers realised a young man with Down syndrome was missing. He was then found alone at the side of the N4, a nearby dual carriageway, close to the M50.
