Hello my name is Megan.

Ive decided to learn because it helps me to communicate when its too hard for me to speak. At times I get overwhelmed and struggle to use my voice. It helps my partner too, when we are trying to communicate when im having dissociative episodes and seizures etc.

      why are you learning bsl

      By juls · Posted

      I have had an interest in learning BSL because I attended a recent event but was not able to communicate with someone who could sign only. As he could lip read we did communicate but I wanted to learn BSL to pay forward

      For my daughter

      By Catherine Harwood · Posted

      Hello, I am learning sign language due to my daughter being partially deaf at birth.  I thought it would be good for me to learn it and hopefully incorporate into teaching her to talk so she will always have that option to fall back on.

      Additional Communication

      By YasminBSL · Posted

      I have had an interest in learning BSL for many years because I find it an interesting language which is helpful to include more people in society rather than exclude. I am neurodiverse and a kinaesthetic learner, so this is a functionally accessible language for me to (hopefully) learn, understand and implement. Alongside the D/deaf community for whom BSL is primarily created and used, I have seen some people find it useful in the Neurodiverse community for various reasons including nonverbal communication.  I think it's an exciting opportunity to be able to communicate with more people and learn about the D/deaf community and culture as well.
