Why learn BSL?

Recommended Posts

After getting the opportunity to start learning SASL when I was a Scouter in South Africa, I was keen once we moved to the UK to learn BSL. Once I came across the BSL course it was a no-brainer! I am currently unemployed and bust getting all my ducks in a row to start a career in the Care industry and while sitting waiting for my DBS to come through, I am trying to learn as much as possible from Dementia Awareness to of course BSL.

Honestly I have no one in the deaf community that I know but feel that the barrier between our two communities can only come down when we as part of the hearing community take the time to learn to communicate in BSL and embrace the fact that our only difference exists in how we communicate. I really hope that through this course and now this forum, I can meet like-minded people and get the opportunity to learn more and make use of what I am learning!
