The non-statutory group of BSL users advising on the #BSLAct will be made up of at least 16 people, The Limping Chicken understands. This includes nine people from England, one tactile signer, one for Scotland, one for Wales and four from BSL Act Now! Campaign. wp.me/p408Yl-85u
Proud to share with you my article on the #BSLAct from the July-August edition of the ITI Bulletin, the member magazine of the Institute of #Translation and #Interpreting. #xl8 #1nt #sl1nt
BSL Act Now! Campaign Mary-Jayne Russell de Clifford Accessible Arts & Media SignalongCharity I used to work as regional ops manager for Scope - met people with learning and/or communication difficulties. They thought using signs as same as #BSL. I had to be careful to say to them. They said they don’t want to be treated differently: speak same English & sign same BSL!
Our work with BSL Act Now! Campaign coalition and @rosie4westlancs secured the #BSLAct and we want to see Deaf people help deliver it. You can apply to join the BSL Advisory Board today! ▶️ bit.ly/3QscRZZ

British Sign Language (BSL) users can now make 999 calls by video thanks to a new app. 📱 Watch London Ambulance Service paramedic Richard explain how it works. ⬇️
"I was told if we wanted to fund the extra support…we should consider selling our house." This article on Mail Online exposes how parents like Kim are being forced to pay thousands so their deaf child can learn sign language. bit.ly/3Tw6sxr
