Hey there, I'm Lizzy, a passionate student pursuing Veterinary Medicine. From a young age, I've always harboured a deep desire to learn sign language. It's not just a skill; it's an essential part of thriving in today's society. Although I haven't had the chance to meet a deaf person yet, I strongly believe that mastering sign language will open countless doors, especially in my future as a veterinarian.

For me, sign language goes far beyond mere communication. It's about tearing down barriers and ensuring that every individual, regardless of their hearing ability, can be understood and included. By immersing myself in sign language, I'll be able to forge genuine connections and provide top-notch care to deaf individuals and their cherished animal companions. It's about showing them the respect they deserve, and embracing their language and culture on a profound level.

I am incredibly excited about the potential that learning sign language holds. It not only enriches my veterinary education but also allows me to contribute to a more inclusive and compassionate world. I yearn for the day when I can seamlessly integrate deaf individuals into my practice, making sure their voices are heard and their needs are met. By embarking on this personal journey of learning sign language, I am committed to fostering empathy, understanding, and genuine connections as a future veterinarian and an advocate for inclusivity in our society.

    • Hi there! I'm Laila and I've just started a beginners course in BSL. I work in a nursery as a senco and one to one currently but hoping to move on to a different job role in a special school or a school setting. I've been fascinated by BSL for years now and I've finally decided to take the leap and start a course so here we are! I am already level 1, 2, 3 and soon to be level 4 trained in makaton in the new year but ive always loved watching people use BSL and even though I'm not deaf i still plan on signing as i speak to myself to ensure i dont forget any of it and i just find it fun to do anyway! I am a little suspicious of my hearing anyway as it isnt the best and i do have moments where i lose hearing in one of my ears for a few minutes at a time the longest being an hour and sometimes in both ears together so I'm looking into that but im so excited to finally be a BSL user and join this community
