Hi, I'm learning BSL, it is something I've always been interested in learning sign language partly because my son struggles to communicate sometimes due to his Autism. Now a young boy has joined our church and he is deaf and learning to sign, I would like to help him feel welcome.

Hi BSL members. My name is Dorothy (DJ), and I’ve only just started to learn BSL after attempting to learn on my own during COVID. I am not deaf but my mother who’s turning 93 soon is now partially deaf. I am aiming to teach her BSL. I was recently in my local Coop and saw a couple of people using the sign language and attempted to join in but failed miserably, however they were very encouraging. Even more so when I just about managed to sign my name. I work full time and hope to use the BSL in my work, and communicate with people using BSL.
