The Makaton Charity

The Makaton Charity exists to ensure that everyone living with a learning and/or communication disabilities has the tools and resources they need to communicate.  Our vision is a world which all people with learning or communication difficulties can communicate.

Workshop expectations
Makaton is an augmentative communication system and is offered to interested people (users, families, professionals) to develop their knowledge and skills in this approach.  Workshops are inclusive and participants are expected to practice the signs and symbols during the workshop.  It is acknowledged that participants have different experiences and this is an ideal opportunity to share personal knowledge and learn from others.  Workshops are fun, relaxed and respectful.

Due to COVID-19, workshops are now available online/over Zoom.
