06 05 2022

EastEnders star Rose Ayling-Ellis makes history as she signs the first ever British Sign Language CBeebies Bedtime Story, Can Bears Ski by Raymond Antrobus, aiming to show 'how isolating it can be for a deaf child in a hearing world'.

The Strictly Come Dancing champion commented 'I am super excited to read my first CBeebies Bedtime Story in British Sign Language and it’s even more wonderful to share a story written by a deaf writer. I hope deaf children enjoy the story and it inspires hearing children to want to learn BSL more!'.
