Featuring an exploration of menopause and a meeting with landscape artist Sarah O’Dowd.

Featuring an exploration of menopause and a discussion about sign support communication systems for online content. Plus a meeting with artist Sarah O’Dowd.

Yvonne finds out more about menopause and the barriers to accessing information and treatment for deaf people. She also looks into why there’s not enough knowledge or information shared about menopause, despite it being something that all those who have periods go through.

Back in the studio, Yvonne and Julian meet with Rebecca Mansell, CEO of  the British Deaf Association, Gavin Lilley, who set up the BSL Watchdog Facebook group, Stephen Hall and Zanna Finnerty from the Makaton charity, and Tracy Goode from Signalong. They discuss the BDA’s recently published statement on concerns regarding the exponential growth in online content created by hearing people using 'sign-supported communication systems' or 'language programmes' that incorporate signs such as Signalong, Makaton and Baby Signs.

Finally, there's a meeting with Sarah O’Dowd, a landscape artist from Northumberland, who says that ‘soundlessness intensifies her visual response’.
