Makaton Training
Empowering Communication, Building Inclusion
At Hastings and Bexhill Mencap, we are proud to offer Makaton training delivered by a qualified and experienced Makaton tutor.
Whether you’re a parent, teacher, carer, support worker, or an organisation looking to build a more inclusive environment, our training covers Levels 1 to 4 — giving you the skills to communicate more effectively with people who have communication difficulties.
Why learn Makaton?
Support staff and carers
Improve the quality of care and support by using Makaton to communicate clearly and consistently with individuals who use alternative communication methods.
Parents and families
Build stronger connections and reduce frustration by learning to understand and communicate with your child or family member in a meaningful way.
Teachers & Educators
Support inclusive teaching and help all pupils engage fully in lessons and school life by making communication accessible to every learner.
Businesses and organisations
Make your workplace or service more inclusive and accessible by equipping your team with the tools to communicate with a broader range of customers and colleagues.
Makaton Training Options
We offer Makaton Levels 1–4, suitable for both individuals and groups. Training can be arranged onsite or at a suitable venue. Each level builds on the last, deepening your understanding and expanding your vocabulary. Participants will receive an official certificate of attendance from The Makaton Charity upon completion of each level.
