Hello Everyone 

Myself and a few other individuals have started a group chat session every Saturday 2pm (GMT). We have already had 1 session and found it very useful. For those wanting to join in on our practise sessions please dm me or comment down below. We are currently using zoom, and I will send you a link to the scheduled meeting. 

If you are just a beginner don't be alarmed or think you are unable to join. I am doing this so that we can actually communicate with each other and benefit with other peoples experience and practise with BSL. On the day I will send/post the link to the meeting for everyone to join.

Come Join In!

@Den Of course the more the merrier!

Great, thanks.  Unfortunately I won't be able to make today's session though, so see you all next week hopefully.

@VanessaH @Shellie @Faith Odi @Jeetus Maximus Sohpal @Mariam Hey Everyone! Thank you all for your patience. 

This weeks meeting has been rescheduled to Sunday 2pm. As things begin to normalise work starting up again, I will need to set future meetings in accordance to such changes. But please do contact any other people within this thread for one to one sessions on days outside the BSL meetings. See you Sunday!

@douglasmathers @Nicole H @VanessaH @Jeetus Maximus Sohpal @Mariam @Shellie @Faith Odi Hi guys. Yes the meeting is still occurring. I will be absent this week. However there are others who will be joining today. We are covering fingerspelling today to speed up and finger signs much more quickly. We have already covered questions with a small group- which continues to grow.  For all those in this thread take a look and use this code today. Next week on wards I will change the meeting codes to renew them.

    • Hi everyone, I'm currently on level 2 BSL. I wanted to learn sign language to enable my writing workshops to be fully inclusive. I am struggling with structure and literally remembering everything while not getting enough practice. Hope to meet some nice people through this forum. I am in Liverpool.
    • Hi all Ive wanted to learn sign language for many years. I have a cousin who signs and I loved watching her but same old … No time ! Anyway I’ve made time (even switched job to give me more control of what I want to do) so off to college I went and haven’t looked back.  I passed level 1 before Christmas and have started level 2. I am struggling a bit as I feel I need more contact with people who sign. I’ve joined a couple of groups 1 in Liverpool and one more local. Love it ! Anyway happy signing everyone ❤️
    • Few spaces left on our next BSL Level 1 Evening course with Yatz   Starting in March 2026, for 18 weeks.   For more details, visit our website: http://www.remark.uk.com/.../level-1-thursday-eve-march-2026   Let’s start your BSL journey with Remark!  
    • Hi all, my name is Tayo and learn something new every month to keep me busy in a less rigid way than my usual STEM job and after doing a psychology course I’d like to learn BSL. I started a week ago but then I realised I’d need someone to practice onlinewith to accelerate my learning and maybe just allow me practice more as I’m doing this mainly because I want to be that person in the room able to mediate if there’s ever need for it and make sure people in the non hearing community feel included, as it’s not something taught in school(I believe it should be).
    • Hello Drift. I too am left-handed and have the same problem. Wendy
    • Hello Drift. I think we have met in the NW Deaf Cafe’ ?    This , I founded two years ago and after an unsure beginning it has grown to such a wonderfully happy place to be. As well as monthly Deaf Cafe’ we have monthly Deaf Pub (!)  and weekly conversation table. We have people with all sorts of BSL skills and those just learning in the free beginner’s classes in our local library. I enjoy leading these very much. From a neighbouring  village a few people came to visit our Deaf Cafe’ last year and  are now setting up their own . This is wonderful for the area where we find many people with hearing impairments are isolated. As no- one in this village currently signs , I am introducing them to the BSL basics and their enthusiasm is so rewarding. Such a great thing for a village to decide to do.   I too have a problem practising conversation though ; I have so much still to learn ! I returned to BSL many years after my first venture in 1992 when I passed the exam, now known as Level 1.  Good luck with your Level2 .   
    • Hello everyone, I'm Giorgia, I decided to start learning British Sign Language because I’m curious and genuinely care about connecting with people in more inclusive ways. Through my work, I support and train people from many different backgrounds, and learning BSL feels like a meaningful step to better support others and reduce barriers. I’m starting with a basic BSL course and I’m excited to learn and grow along the way.
    • Hi I'm Polly,  I learned very basic BSL when I was a childminder, and really enjoyed it. I currently work with the police and I am looking for a career change. The idea of becoming a BSL interpreter really appeals to me , but I am struggling to find the information I need. I understand the route to becoming an interpreter is long and costly and the accessibility for me in Lincolnshire is very limited. But any help anyone can give into how I can start my journey would be hugely appreciated.  Xx
