The team at CureDM Charity is delighted to launch FREE online Makaton sessions for the UK DM community, made possible by your generous support and donations.

Sessions will run on Zoom every other Wednesday, from 4.45pm to 5.45pm.
Our first session is on Wednesday 3rd June at 4.45pm, led by Rachel Downs, certified Makaton teacher.

Makaton is widely used to support communication for children and adults with communication or learning difficulties, as well as the people and organisations around them (including teachers, health professionals, friends, family, and public services). It can help people take a more active part in everyday life, and we’re pleased to offer it to our DM community.

The meeting is for all ages, and as the group develops, and needs are identified, we can look to offer more specific sessions. To kick us off the first few sessions will incorporate basic signing, fun activities, and working towards a group song.
