Top award for sign language
Alvechurch interpreting and training centre, Sign Solutions, is celebrating after one of its staff sign language interpreters won a national award.
Signature - the charity championing excellence in communication with deaf people - announced the regional winners for its Learner of the Year Award, with junior trainee sign language interpreter, Julia Ward, winning the Midlands region.
The awards are designed to recognise and reward those who have made a significant contribution towards achieving a society in which deaf and deafblind people have full access. Julia, who was up against 19 other shortlisted learners, has worked hard during the last few months and has excelled in both her interpreting and sign language courses.
