Learning British Sign Language (BSL) is the most common form of sign language in Britain and is the preferred language of around 145,000 people within the UK.
Below are a few introductory online courses that might be of interest.
British Sign
British Sign offer a range of online sign language tools, including a British Sign Language (BSL) dictionary and finger-spelling.
They also offer a 20hr CPD certified introduction to British Sign Language, which they offer on a pay-what-you-can model. You can take the course for as little as £3 – but if you can afford to pay more it helps to sustain the course and supports others to learn BSL.
