14.01.2022 Today, 23 September, is the International Day of Sign Languages. We were so pleased to have Sharon teach us some signs in Auslan you might like to follow al...ong and learn these yourself! The International Day of Sign Languages is a day to raise awareness of the importance of sign language and the human rights of people who are deaf. According to the World Federation of the Deaf, there are approximately 72 million deaf people worldwide. Deaf people around the world use more than 300 different sign languages. In 2015, around 20,000 people in Australia used Auslan to communicate every day. As Sharon says: Deaf people love Auslan. It’s a huge part of who we are. We hope that you also celebrate International Day of Sign Languages with us. #IDSL2020 #IWDeaf2020 #Auslan #SignLanguage

03.01.2022 Business Guidance I am always honoured to get your calls asking about that line item, how to apply costs, write service agreements, to chat about that business idea and NDIS registration process. As much as I love to share information because I want everyone to succeed and deliver exceptional NDIS services, I cannot do this for free. ... It takes time to research, read and ensure I keep up to date with all the NDIS news and changes and how this might be relevant to your business and the support you provide. So, if you would like to chat even just for 10 minutes about your business, please give me a call to book an appointment. Bec
