Tilly has nailed this! She is amazing. My heart breaks for all the families who can’t give that option to their child as they can’t afford to learn and teach their deaf child BSL. This must change. I will fight and fight for this! @GillianKeegan @david4wantage #communication
Tilly tells us three reasons why she learnt #BritishSignLanguage (BSL) for her deaf child.
Time is running out for you to fill out the @educationgovuk BSL GCSE consultation! The consultation closes this Friday, click the link to add your thoughts👇

The NHS is asking patients to choose services wisely during industrial action and take simple steps to ensure care is available to patients who need it most. This includes using 111 online as the first port of call, as well as visiting your local pharmacist or contacting your GP.

Your next poo could save your life. Just a tiny sample detects signs of cancer before you notice anything wrong. If you’re sent a bowel cancer screening kit, put it by the loo. Don't put it off.

Thanks to @AccessBedford delivering deaf awareness training for non-clinical staff in GP surgeries. People who are deaf have told us communicating with their practice can be a barrier to getting care, this will give staff confidence to better communicate with deaf patients.
