About Signs of the Landscape: British Sign Language Walk (no BSL knowledge needed)

Join us for a walk with a difference to discover and learn British Sign Language (BSL) for the nature at YSP.  

Designed for the hearing community to learn BSL, with no previous experience or knowledge needed to take part. 

The walk will be led by Martin Glover, a d/Deaf BSL user, architect, and art facilitator and will be supported by an interpreter.

Although I have hearing difficulties I challenge anyone not to be enchanted, illuminated and absorbed by Martin’s delivery, which is almost magical. Not to be missed, one of my favourite ‘talks’ ever.
