Today marks the start of Deaf Awareness Week, which raises awareness about the challenges faced by 12 million adults in the UK who are D/deaf or have hearing loss. For personal and family reasons, this week is particularly important to our family

All deaf children should have the #RightToSign. The #BritishSignLanguage (BSL) GCSE will provide deaf young people the opportunity to study a GCSE in their own language in England.

Read our latest blog on the Right to Sign campaign, available in #BSL👇

As a parent of a deaf child I agree wholeheartedly with this @BDA_Deaf . We have spent nearly £6k as a family and still not fluent enough to communicate with our deaf child . What happens when families can’t pay for bsl lessons ? #inclusionmatters BSL needs to be in all schools

Families with deaf children face financial barriers to learning #BritishSignLanguage (BSL). 🚧

It takes just two minutes to write to your MP — to let them know families need free and easy-to-access BSL courses wherever they are in England.✍️
