Petition Make British Sign Language Free To Learn

More details

People who want to learn British Sign Language should be allowed to do so using colleges. This was scrapped in 2010 as BSL is not a recognised language in the UK.

And yet there are thousands of hearing people who would like to be able to communitcate with the deaf community (myself included), and have to pay hundreds of pounds to be able to do this.
