Participants will have the opportunity to build meaningful relationships, learn Makaton, and develop independent living skills in a supportive environment.

Makaton Skills Workshops Carers / Family
Engage and Communicate with Makaton
These sessions are more than just learning a new skill they’re about strengthening relationships, reducing frustration, and celebrating progress together. Whether you’re brand new to Makaton or looking to build on what you already know, our sessions are open to everyone. Come along, have a cuppa, and be part of a group that lifts each other up. Because when families and carers feel empowered, the whole community rises.

RISE TOGETHER: SIGN & SING
Learn, Connect & Rise Together
We will host one session on a Saturday each month,
running from 11:00am to 12:30pm for our RISE TOGETHER: Sign & Sing sessions – where our amazing service users lead fun, interactive Makaton sessions using nursery stories and rhymes. These sessions are open to children, families, and community members, offering a welcoming space to learn basic Makaton in a relaxed and engaging way. It’s more than just learning signs – it’s a chance for the young people we support to grow in confidence, feel empowered, and share their skills in a community where they don’t often get the chance to lead. Enjoy free tea, coffee, juice, and cake, and be part of a warm, inclusive space where everyone rises together.
