The Signing Company

We know one of the biggest questions around starting a franchise is… “How do I fund it?”

The good news? There are more options than you might think.

From personal investment and business loans to start-up support and external funding, different routes depend on your situation.

At The Signing Company, we don’t expect you to have it all figured out.
We’ll guide you through your options, help you understand what’s realistic, and support you in taking the next step.

If you’re serious about building your own business, don’t let uncertainty hold you back! Let's have a conversation.

The Signing Company is already operating across multiple locations, with established demand for classes and growing awareness of the brand.

However, there are still key territories available, including areas where interest already exists, but a dedicated franchisee is needed to deliver and grow the service.

These “ready to go” locations offer a strong starting point, with less time spent building awareness from scratch and more focus on converting interest into bookings and long-term growth.

For the right person, this creates a significant advantage: the opportunity to step into a model that is proven, supported, and ready to expand.

We’re not looking to fill spaces. We’re looking for individuals who can take ownership of an area and build it properly.

Contact us if that individual is you!

Our puppet characters are a key part of how we deliver our sessions, particularly in early years learning.

They're not simply for entertainment; they're used as structured teaching tools to support engagement, attention, and memory.

By introducing signs through characters, storytelling, and repetition, children are more likely to retain what they learn and remain engaged throughout the session.

This approach also supports parents, giving them a clear and memorable way to continue using signs at home.

It’s a simple concept, but one that plays an important role in the effectiveness of our classes.

So without further or do..

This Deaf Awareness Week, we’re proud to share stories that inspire understanding, inclusion, and confidence.

Our Stevenage, Knebworth and Welwyn Garden City Franchisee, Karen, is happy to share her Signing journey today 🩷

"I started our Signing journey 9 years ago (my son and I).

At the time, there were a lot of doubts, especially from my mother and all of her friends. I heard things like 'won't that delay his speech?', 'babies will tell you what they need anyway' and even 'Signing is a waste of time'.

But I wanted to give it a try, and I did my research.

The results spoke for themselves!

Watching him begin to Sign was incredible, not just for me, but for everyone around us. Even those who were unsure at first were amazed and boasted to friends and family! Not only could he communicate earlier, but it also supported his speech development, and he became an early fluent and confident talker.

The same people who once questioned it became the biggest advocates!

That experience showed me how powerful Signing is not just for communication, but for breaking down misconceptions and generational perceptions, and it truly shows that Signing benefits everyone, regardless of ability!".

At The Signing Company, we believe communication should be accessible to everyone 🩷

No matter your background, experience, or where you’re starting from, you’ll always be welcomed into our community.

Our classes are inclusive, supportive, and designed to empower both children and adults to communicate with confidence.

Because when we break down communication barriers, we create stronger connections, deeper understanding, and more inclusive communities for all.

Becoming a franchisee gives you the influence, platform and opportunity to create meaningful change and build a more inclusive environment in your community.
