Update:

Following the sad passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II last week we have taken the decision, out of respect to her and her family, to postpone the National SIGN Awards Ceremony and mini-con in Birmingham on 22/09/2022.

 

We will make an announcement at the earliest opportunity as to when it is to be rescheduled.

 

With my best wishes to you all at this time,

Andrew Harvey .
