Honoured to represent the UK at the European Union of the Deaf General Assembly in Brussels today. Our delegates this year is our Vice Chair, Abigail Gorman and CEO Rebecca Mansell. They are looking forward to producing a BSL report for our members.
New Release: Reliable new data points to an extraordinary 1.5 million UK citizens being able to sign in BSL, following the release of an important report (scotlandscensus.gov.uk/2022-results/s…) by National Records of Scotland (NRS)

We are very proud of the BSL and deaf representation by the talented Sophie Woolley in Netflix’s Bridgerton as Lady Stowell. It’s so good to see more visibility of BSL on our screens #bridgertonseason3
