We loved watching the play ‘Grey’ by @theKokoBrown exploring mental health in the black community + integrated with #britishsignlanguage! Showing at @Ovalhouse until this Saturday! A must watch 🎭✨

[Critics' Club @critics_club]

hey #followers! We're fundraising to kick-start our programme for new critics, starting in Sept! We believe that every young person should have equal access to enjoy #art + #theatre! Please #donate and #retweet far + wide. Thank you ❤️💛💚💙 #CriticsClub https://t.co/0ZzHuy4C5f

[📻 Colin Paterson 📺 @ColinGPaterson]

Only 4 British Sign Language interpreters in the UK are specialists in Grime. Tara Asher signed Stormzy’s Glasto set for deaf festival goers.
She rehearsed each song for a day. This is joyous. She LOVES her job. Have a watch please.

We loved the #britishsignlanguage installation by @chrisunkim & the kids at Frank Barnes Deaf school for @ARTNIGHTLDN 🙌🏾

A big crowd in Parliament Square this afternoon at the #SENDNationalCrisis event! Great to see so many people come together to campaign against cuts to support for #deaf and disabled children.

[National Deaf Children's Society @NDCS_UK]

Pleased to see The Guardian cover the parent-led #SENDNationalCrisis marches taking place this Thursday. 📣 Members of our Campaigns team will be marching with #deaf children and their families across England to demand an end to cuts to vital support: https://t.co/oPmREAHIui

We’re here @allpointseastuk for the Deaf rave summer Festival! So much fun enjoying the #deaf arts + making new friends ✨

The photographer then supported the young people to apply their new skills! We were super impressed with the #photograghy work they produced in such a short amount of time! 📸

[Loop Studios LDN @loopstudiosldn_]

Kua + Kirsty had the chance to ask loads of questions + learn how to take a quality portrait photo using an iPhone! 📱✨

[Loop Studios LDN @loopstudiosldn_]

Photographer @mrjasonlarkin then delivered a session on why he got into the #creative industries + presented some of his favourite work from over the years!

[Loop Studios LDN @loopstudiosldn_]

And then delivered an amazing session teaching the group about their experiences, #deaf humour and even the #bsl alphabet! 🖐🏼 #britishsignlanguage

[Loop Studios LDN @loopstudiosldn_]

Our Deaf talent spent the morning designing and practicing for their #DeafAwareness workshop!
