signalong introductory course for parent/carer members of a child with down's syndrome
​

Bexley Voice and Bexley DS Group hosted a free one day introductory Signalong course for parents/carer members who have a child or young person up to age 25 with Down’s Syndrome, on the 16th of March.
 
‘Signalong’ training focuses on developing communication skills including: aspects of total communication, such as facial expression, body language and voice tone; plus simplification of language and keyword selection.
 
Thank you to the parents who came along and to Iona Stephens for teaching the course.

​Thanks also go to Claire and Lisa, our Bexley Voice volunteers who worked hard to get the funding and organise the free event.
