BSL is something I have always been interested in learning and I have learned small bits here and there, however I have taken this opportunity during lockdown to do an online course. I am currently studying Occupational Therapy at university and it is clear how important communication is in healthcare. I think that being able to understand and carry out basic signs will be beneficial to me when working as an OT and I have met numerous people (both on placement and in my personal life) who have used signs to communicate.
