Sign Language Week 2021: Day 4 - BSL Act Now! A campaign plan is vital for a winning ‘BSL Act Now’ campaign. A strong and clear plan will serve as a roadmap to achieving our ultimate goal of a BSL Act. The 18th March 2003 was when the UK Government formally recognised British Sign Language as a language in its own right. It also promised to look into a legal status for BSL. Eighteen years on, we’re still waiting. Waiting for the key to the door to a BSL Act. No more. We’re not waiting any longer

In celebration of Sign Language Week and World Poetry Day, BA Performance in BSL and English student Yuki performs an extract from her interpretation of Norman Bissell's poem, 'Open World'. Yuki is the most recent winner of RCS's Elaine Campbell Gullan Poetry Competition, celebrating Marjorie Gullan: activist, feminist and experimental pioneer in voice. The prize is 100 years old this year, and it's also the 50th year the prize has been awarded by RCS. #worldpoetryday #SignLanguageWeek | Royal C
