British Sign Language (BSL) 

Perhaps the definitive use of our 'hands' .... a way of communicating.

BSL is the first or preferred language of around 70,000 people in the UK because their world is built upon visually, using their HANDS. 

It is flourishing in a range of art forms including drama, poetry, comedy and satire.

I use it every day at work.

Our dear friend over at My Home Made Happy is posting one photo each day on the theme of “hands” throughout March.  We are joining in too, although it won’t be every day with us. Why not have a go too? Visit her post to find out more by clicking on her badge on the top left of our blog or here on HANDS.

'Hands' are amazing so why not celebrate them.  Join in sharing images of your hands in action, or your loved ones hands.

Here is our first offering! Not a surprise...!
