BSL Awareness for ME Communities


 Ishara and our partners Black and Ethnic Minority Infrastructure for Scotland (BEMIS) and Asian Deaf Club, successful hosted a British Sign Language Awareness Session for minority ethnic(ME) communities in Glasgow in November last year. We had 18 people attend a session about BSL, its history, culture and heritage as a language within the deaf community. Also promoted BSL learning and employment opportunities available if learnt as language for ME communities. 

We look forward to hosting more sessions around Scotland with BEMIS with Edinburgh being next! If you are interested to learn more about BSL, please contact us at Ishara@deafconnections.co.uk .
