        Dear Sir,
 
Those who face the challenges of disability 
 must  have  been  encouraged  by  the  article 
 ‘Desegregating  Disability’  (en  March).  The 
 suggestion 
 to  encourage  members  of  our 
 congregations to learn British Sign Language 
 (BSL) to make our services more inclusive and 
 as a means of outreach to the deaf community 
 is  wonderful.  However,  BSL 
 is  a  complex 
 language and few people within our congregations would manage to become proficient.
