Storrington and Sullington Neighbourhood Wardens, Chris and John, recently completed their level 1 Makaton training.
Makaton is a language programme that combines speech, signs and symbols to give options for people to communicate.
On completing the training, Chris commented:
“The basic skills we have learnt have given us the confidence to sign and talk to everyone that has difficulty communicating. This will be a great help for the work we currently do with children with SEN and Autism“.
John added:
“A big thank you to Emily Folan, our Tutor from Makaton, for making the course enjoyable“.
