Learn a new skill this year...

Makaton is a communication programme using symbols, signs and speech to enable people to communicate. Many churches use Makaton to support people with learning disabilities to be able to access worship and teaching. It is also widely used to communicate with children before they can speak.

We had a fantastic Know and Grow Makaton training day in Cardiff in November 2024. So we're thrilled to say we have another training in 2025...

Join us in Gosport on 26th April 2025 for a Know and Grow Makaton Training Day - email carol@throughtheroof.org to find out more or book online here.
The event is an in-person training and costs £40 per person. You'll have great fun and learn well over 100 Makaton signs, including Christian vocabulary and Makaton for everyday use.
The event is run by the learning disability charity: Count Everyone In, who developed this course with the Makaton Charity.

Other Know and Grow Makaton courses are taking place in various areas run by Count Everyone In. For details of more Know and Grow Makaton events in 2025, follow this link.

Why not learn a new skill in 2025 and communicate the love of Jesus in Makaton?
