Such an incredible show last night. Not only was it my first time doing a live sign song performance, but as a duet with the amazing singer @jamiecullum, and on @Channel4, I can’t believe it. @ParalympicsGB @tnluk #paralympicsgbhomecoming #makeamazinghappen #jamiecullum

And we're off! What an amazing first day 🤩 We've seen shows for families, lively debates about deaf arts, and riotous comedy acts. Stay tuned for the rest of the week, it's going to be a special one. #EdinburghDeafFestival 📸 Colin Hattersley

I watched it over many times. It made me emotional and tearful 😭💔 I wish I can sign more of your songs ❤️🤟🏼 @jamiecullum
It’s a huge honour for me to be performing at the #ParalympicsGBHomecoming to help celebrate the achievements of the athletes on their return from Tokyo. Check out my performance on Channel 4 at 10pm tonight! #MakeAmazingHappen

The connection between my signing and Jamie’s vocals and piano playing, and the emotive lyrics, was very moving for me. Plus, to dance with the talented dancers of @DeafMenDancing1, live on the stage at @ssearena, it was so unreal. I will never forget this experience. 🦋❤️
