Covid has made me realise how difficult it must be for deaf people to communicate while everyone is wearing masks, i can barely hear what people are saying through them but for people who rely on lip reading it must be impossible. I think it’s so important for people to learn at least the basics of BSL so dear people don’t feel isolated.

      Why BSL?

      By Amelie Faye · Posted

      I am doing my Duke of Edinburgh certification at the moment and need to learn a new skill for it. I chose to learn sign language because it's something I've never learnt before and I love languages, I think any language is an amazing skill to have.

      Hello everyone,  Many years ago I spent time working with a deaf person, when he moved on to better things I promised him that I would learn sign language.  Here I am finally fulfilling my promise.

      Hello

      By David Pont · Posted

      Hello Everyone, my name is David and I have recently started the BSL course online. I have progressive hearing loss and at present wear hearing aids in both my ears, my early life was in the Royal Artillery and I also play the saxophone (no surprises why I'm losing my hearing!).

      Introduce Yourself
