My name is Charlie, I live in Kent. I started  BSL during lockdown with an amazing young lady called Caitlin. I signed up to the course on here too to further my skills. I have ALWAYS wanted to learn BSL for as long as I can remember. However, since starting Muay Thai boxing and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu nearly 2 years ago, I have made friends with an amazing MMA fighter there called Thomas. He was born deaf but to watch him you wouldnt think so, he's a machine! Anyway, as I do the publicity for the gym and he is one of our No1 fighters I was boosted to learn BSL. I cant wait to see him and his community when lockdown on our gym is lifted. I hope you're all well, safe and happy? Much love to all.

      Why am I learning BSL?

      By Lisa.T · Posted

      I'm a student nurse and realise that some may need a nurse who understands BSL. Learning sign also encourages inclusivity and diversity. It's good to chat to people from all walks of life.

      Why am I learning BSL?

      By WillowLT · Posted

      I have grown up with my sisters, and one is profoundly deaf so i have always been able to sign from a young age. Signing with my sister and family members has been fine and a good way of communication. However, when at work ( i work as a manager in a restaurant) i have always found it difficult to use sign with other people as i get nervous (it doesn't stop me). I would love to become more confident and one day become an interpreter so i can help people and grow my skills.

      Why sign language?

      By Cyrill · Posted

      I don’t have a great answer, as many do that I have read here. I am just enjoying learning new things, I want to be able to be inclusive when possible and generally just fascinated when I see people having conversations in sign.
