Come along to our regular weekly Sign Language Night!
Experienced session tutors are bringing their innovative new Sign Language Night to the heart of the Coalville community – with regular club sessions taking place here at Century Theatre.
Aimed at increasing Deaf Awareness and bridging the gap between the D/deaf and hearing worlds it is hoped that the sessions will help to make learning sign language fun and more accessible and provide the Deaf community with a vibrant space in which to socialise.
Sessions will run from 7.30pm – 9pm
No need to book just come along!
The events will include free basic sign language lessons, captioned films featuring D/deaf characters and issues, sign singing, Bingo and “no voice” weeks!

Tuesday 15 August – (UK) holiday signs

Each free sign language lesson is taught in isolation, so it doesn’t matter if you have not previously attended. This is a great space for students to practice and for the D/deaf and hearing communities to make friends and break down barriers.
Note: On weeks where there is a free sign language lesson the session will be 7.15pm – 8.45pm – you’re welcome to arrive earlier and stay later to mingle!
All welcome – these sessions are free of charge.
Our friendly bar will be open for drinks and snacks from 7pm.
Parking – free to attendees.
