We've Been Featured!


Back in early July we got an email from the lovely Editor of British Deaf News, Anna asking if we'd like to provide an interview for their August Magazine - we of course jumped up and said we would love to!


Anna came across us and found 'Deafness & Friendships' and 'Is Deafness a Disability?' interesting  and wanted to ask us a little more about them and some other burning questions they wanted to know. We of course love to spark conversation and discuss frankly all matters of our lives and Deafness as many posts of ours have displayed.


One thing I think was apparent during the writing of this interview was how different our opinion was on our 'Disability' and it's something we really love to discuss with you guys because we are different, despite being best friends we do see a variety of opinion between us (although it does have
to be known we agree on near enough everything else) and I think this made it a readable article.


I'm so proud of this and everything that we achieve, it was really great fun to write and even more exciting to see it come through the post in print! It felt very surreal seeing our photo on paper with all our words placed together. It holds a marvellous memory for us both and it wouldn't be possible without you guys reading our posts - so many heartfelt thanks!

It's holding pride of place on my new desk - I can't bring myself to pack it away yet!

Norfolk Signing Choir by Eleanor


So, a while ago I talked about how excited I was about setting up my very own Signing Choir with (an extreme amount of) help from my very lovely and generous friend Claire.

 We started back in September 2013 and we have been enjoying it so much! We have a range of songs already such as 'Happy' by Pharell Williams, 'Let it Go' from Frozen, 'Roar' by Katy Perry, 'Dancing Queen' by ABBA, 'Shake it off' by Taylor Swift and a few others.

 We are open to all, young or old, beginner or expert at BSL. If you love music and you want to sign (BSL) then do come along! We meet once a month in Norwich, England.
