In June 2021, the Live and Learn members completed the BSL course with Steve McKenna from Merseyside Society for Deaf People (MSDP). Our members enjoy doing sign language and they don’t want to forget what they have learned, so we decided to spend some time each week practising.

This week we repeated the alphabet, signing our names, the months of the year, the days of the week and where we lived. Emma and Jade, who have both earned a Level 1 certificate in BSL, led this part of the session. They were assisted by Abi, a student from Hope University, who is on placement at PFM for three weeks.  How lucky that she also has a BSL Level 3 certificate!
