🤟 We’re proud to share a British Sign Language (BSL) version of our Fire Safety at Home for Carers visual guide. 🏠🔥

Created to help make fire safety information more accessible for deaf people in Derbyshire, the guide features a BSL overlay performed by Derbyshire Fire & Rescue Service staff currently studying for their Level 3 BSL qualification.

With support from the Royal School for the Deaf Derby the project aims to help make emergency communication clearer, more inclusive, and easier to access for everyone.

Please help us raise awareness of the guide so more deaf carers and members of the community can benefit from this important information. 💙
