< Go Back

We have just updated our web page aimed at providing information for National & Local BSL Plans

“The BSL National Plan has ten long-term goals. These goals represent our collective ambition for BSL in Scotland.”

Scottish Public Services: Action 5

“Promote the use of the Scottish Government’s nationally funded BSL online interpreting video relay service (VRS) called ‘contactSCOTLAND-BSL’, which allows BSL users* to contact public and third sector services and for these services to contact them, and explore the potential for its greater use.”

* Wherever we refer to ‘BSL users*’ we mean D/deaf and/or Deafblind people
(those who receive the language in a tactile form due to sight loss) whose first
or preferred language is British Sign Language.
