So many reasons!

[EmmaGriffiths]

There are so many reasons why I want to learn BSL.

When I was little I was properly introduced to BSL by my mum, she learned BSL as part of her job as a child-minder. She taught me what she learned and I loved the language! 

I always wanted to learn more but never found the time or anyone to practice with. I've had many jobs in public sector and learned that I could be more inclusive with my communication. 

Being diagnosed with hearing loss motivated me even more to learn BSL. It will be incredibly helpful for me as I struggle hearing what people are saying most of the time, and I know how much it will help others who use BSL to communicate.

It's also such an interesting and amazing language, I'm very excited to learn and become fluent in BSL!
