FREE. All can attend. Online - see below for booking details.
Due to popular demand we will be delivering this session live for a
second time and have extended this event to include a live Q&A at
the end where we will be answering all the questions from the delivery
of this webinar and any questions that come in on the day.
I have been using Makaton for over 35 years, using it to communicate my wants, needs, and feelings. It was my only way of communicating for many years. Even after I developed speech, I still need and use Makaton daily in many ways.
Makaton has been about for 50 years this year, and I have been using it to communicate for over 35 of those 50 years. And I have to say, without Makaton I do not know if I’d be who I am today.
I have decided to share my journey with those who would like to hear it. I would like to invite you to hear my story for both the successes I felt and the problems I faced from when I was a child through to my teenage years.
In part 2, I'll share more of my adult years.
