The eight accompanying guides below provide sign visuals to support your learning from Torbay’s short films, Makaton Signs for Everyday Routines.

Makaton is a unique communication programme that uses symbols (pictures), signs (gestures) and speech to enable people to communicate. It supports the development of essential communication skills such as attention and listening, comprehension, memory, recall and organisation of language and expression.
