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.
