Why I'm learning

[JadeF]

I briefly mentioned in my intro, I used to have some knowledge during my secondary school years. We were an inclusive school and had a large number of d/Deaf students so I would communicate with them when I could. I've always remembered some basic BSL but now I'm in a job role that is in a residential care home, I want to learn again to communicate with some of the residents
