Rapper Aitch has become an ambassador for a Down's Syndrome charity, Down's syndrome Association.

This comes after the Manchester artist wrote a song for his sister, Gracie, who has Down's syndrome.

The song, titled "My G" features Ed Sheeran who at the time was one of the few people in music who new about the rapper's sister.

Aitch donated part of the money for the budget of the music video for "My G" to the Down's Syndrome Association (DSA), to who he is now an ambassador.

Aitch said: "My little sister Gracie is an inspiration to me and my family, so becoming an Ambassador for the Down's Syndrome Association, DSA, the only charity in UK which addresses all aspects of Down's syndrome, means I can help to promote the profile of the DSA on a global basis and here at home in UK, hopefully engaging and educating more younger people along the way."

"By representing the DSA, I hope I can make a difference for my sister and everyone else around the world with Down's syndrome, who have as much right to a fully inclusive life as the rest of us. I can't wait to get started."

In his role as Ambassador, Aitch will help to raise awareness for the DSA's work by attending events and supporting fundraising efforts.

Carol Boys, DSA Chief Executive said: "We are so excited to welcome Aitch as our latest DSA Ambassador."

"He represents a powerful voice for the younger generation, and, through his incredible music, awareness of the DSA and its work will be strengthened nationally and globally."

"On top of that, Aitch's donations make an enormous difference to our work in supporting thousands of people who have Down's syndrome, their families, and carers."

"So, I would like to say a huge thank you to Aitch for agreeing to come on board, and to the team at Capitol Records UK/EMI for their support, we look forward to a long and rewarding relationship."
