Sign Language is used mainly by people who are Deaf or have hearing impairments.

Please click on the poster at the bottom of the page for some examples

Why Join: A knowledge of a few phrases in BSL is useful if you should know a deaf person or become more hard of hearing as you age. Nurseries, special schools and (increasingly) Primary schools are teaching sign. Your grandchildren may already be learning to sign. You could help!
