Hearing Times

The only national newspaper for deaf and hard of hearing people in the UK

Deafstation. Deafresource. BBC See Hear. DSigns - British Sign Language, Czech Sign Language, Greek Sign. D-signs is a project to implement an online training system for sign language in the workplace, mapped to Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), to be made available in British, Irish, Czech, Greek and Cypriot Sign Languages. This implementation will ensure compatibility of content and approach and to pave the way for a Council of Europe -recognised qualification in sign language for the workplace – which is the key meeting point of Deaf and hearing people.

As well as qualifying the hearing employers and workmates we will create a direct effect for Deaf employees through the better communication at work. The central purpose of D-Signs is to harmonise curriculum content and assessment for sign language as it would be used in the workplace. While providing a language development for hearing people, D-Signs is actually creating a better workplace for Deaf people. The objectives are: Guardian Deaf Issue. Deaf Community. British Sign Language. Signed. Sign Health. Deafinitely Theatre. Deaf / Speak / hear.
