I am 63 and have health issues but I still want to be of use.
I have thought for a long time about learning sign language, but never ĥad the confidence to follow it through.
I am now unemployed, with 4 years left to official retirement. I met a rep for the deaf on the way to the bus home today from the job centre. Even though I could'nt afford to to donate monthly the young lady thanked me for stopping and showed me 3 simple sighed words, which I will ror some reason always remember.
When I got home and sat watching TV there was a antiques program on where both people where deaf. This just confirmed the fact that I would love to help, there is so much scope to help the deaf comunity, auctions, schools plus so much more.
How can I learn and get involved?
