Hello. I am deaf with CI - I use bsl where I can. I wanted to use Fingerspeller on the bottom of my work email for my name - please can anyone tell me who I get permission from to use this on work email or if have to pay to use on public/work email? Thank you -
Back learning BSL after a very long break, learning it as I am a Support Worker and a guy I support is Deaf, not only that but I’d like to be more inclusive with my communication and I’m hoping long term to become an Art Psycotherapist so it would be useful for ensuring people use their choice of communication. Am keen to learn more:) -
Hi all, I used to be proficient at BSL, but that was 30+ years ago. Then I moved to the States and became proficient in ASL. Now I am back here, living in Scotland, and I have to retrain my brain for BSL. Here's hoping! -
Hello, Nice to meet you all. My name is Jasmine and I have recently started to learn BSL. I wanted to see if I could learn a language based on muscle memory because I used to play piano and also wanted to pick up another skill. Since starting two or three weeks ago, it's the happiest I've ever been. There is something so fulfilling about learning BSL and I can't wait to get better. I am excited to be on this journey and hopefully use this new language one day. -
Hi Chris . Very jealous that you are at Preston doing the degree . I so wanted to do this when I was younger. I hope you enjoy the course and succeed in pursuing a career in Deaf awareness and language. -
I really hope that you will find the course useful. It cannot be easy for you but communication is so important and I can truly appreciate why you want to do this i really hope that it helps you ..Good luck .

Hi my name is Trevlin I live in NorthWest England . I am deaf myself since age 3 from measles damage but have wanted to involve myself in deaf /Deaf culture and language for a long time. I hoped in my younger years to study a Uclan to do the deaf studies degree but that didn't happen. I am now studying level one sign language at college and love it but as I'm now in my 70th decade I may have left it to late . I would love to know any other potential signers and see how people are going on .I'm enjoying this course as an add on to college in an attempt to keep the grey cells firing .

Hi everyone! A little about me is that I have a neurological condition, Hemiplegic Migraines, that can take away my ability to speak for days at a time and for the past few years I've struggled to communicate in any other possible way; text to speech apps (which is time comsuming),just accepting that I have to have someone guess what im trying to say, etc. So I decided to try learning BSL in the hope that I can at least communicate more directly. Hopefully it'll be more effective and efficient way of communicating during my HM attacks. -

Hi, I'm Neil from Kent. I am fully hearing. I am a complete beginner and trying to learn as had an interacting with a deaf person and realised how utterly ignorant i was! I then learnt a couple of signs to be able to say hello / good evening etc to be polite.... and guess it spiralled from there.
