Wellbeing and Sensory Consultant (and WI President) Lindsey Barrell has been signing for 13 years
having passed both Levels 1 and 2 in BSL (British Sign Language) whilst supporting hearing impaired
students in a high school. Lindsey has a wide range of experience of working within a Sensory world

factoids and some basic greetings and questions signs. This is a fascinating and interactive session
that everyone can enjoy. An experienced and very well received speaker, Lindsey has been delivering
