Chatty Hands is back this Saturday, 19 September - and this month, bring along a game you enjoy!

Board game, card game, something creative, something a bit random - anything goes! And don’t worry if you don’t know all the signs you need for it.

We’ll still have all the usual suspects there too, so there’ll be plenty to get involved with even if you don’t bring anything.

A lot of new people have followed Chatty Hands lately, so we thought we would say a quick hello 👋

You’ve probably found this page because you’re local to Leigh-on-Sea or Southend and you’re interested in BSL, Deaf community, making new connections, or finding a friendly place to practise signing.

If you’re up for relaxed meetups with lovely friendly people, a bit of signing, games, cake, and plenty of encouragement, you’ve definitely come to the right place.

Chatty Hands is for BSL learners, Deaf people, hard of hearing people, anyone who wants to build confidence using BSL in a welcoming space. You don’t need to be fluent, and you don’t need to be perfect - just come along and have a go.

Thanks for popping onto the profile and seeing what Chatty Hands is all about. Got any questions? Comment with anything you want to know and we’ll get back to you.

If you’re still reading, maybe this is exactly the kind of friendly signing space you’ve been looking for.

Come and join us at Chatty Hands 🤟

See you soon x
