We spoke to @BBCBreakfast about the impact the #BSLBill would have on deaf communities across the UK.
"If we came together as a society to provide a fully accessible environment for deaf people, I promise we will see more [deaf people] in different fields."

Eastenders Writers Scheme, 2021
BBC EastEnders are looking for a new intake of writers for our next Writers Scheme which will
commence late June/early July 2021. Taking place over approximately 6 - 12 weeks, this
scheme will see writers mentored through writing a and off screen, we are looking for new voices from
underrepresented groups and in this instance we are seeking submission from writers with
disability. We seek fresh, relatable voices who have a passion and love for Eastenders, and
who want to tell the next big, ground-breaking and inspiring stories that not only represent,
but challenge our society.
If you are interested in applying please send your CV/resume, a spec script and a paragraph
explaining why you
would like to be considered for this scheme to:

Delighted to have received my 📖 treat (“Data driven nonprofits” by @SMacLaughlin) from @Data4GoodFest via @DataKindUK! Thanks so much! Perfect timing in @DeafAction’s journey of becoming more data driven 🤩
Are you #deaf, like #tech, #UK-based & looking for a #job? If you're a #web developer, you may be able to transfer your skills to #app (e.g. #ReactNative). Oh and Emmy & co are great.
SERIOUSLY?! 😳The Dutch ministry @MinVWS, responsible for interpreting provision for deaf people, doesn’t want to review the fees of interpreters because “most interpreters are women”, “most interpreters work part time”, “interpreters don’t rely on this income”. 😡 #BackToThe50s
SERIEUS, @MinPres?! Is dit hoe u en @2eKamertweets denken gender gelijkheid te behalen? ❗️ONGEHOORD ❗️dat @MinVWS denkt dat vrouw-zijn, deeltijd werk en ‘maatschappelijke relevantie’ genoeg redenen zijn om normbedragen voor tolken gebarentaal niet te bespreken/herzien 😡
