BSL interpreting from experienced professionals

British Sign Language, or BSL as it’s abbreviated, is the visual language for thousands of people across the UK. There is a persisting myth that all deaf people know sign language, but in reality, out of the approximately 12 million people in the UK who are deaf or hard of hearing, only around 80,000 know BSL. For those who do know how to communicate through it, sign language gives a freedom and independence that changes lives.
