Visual Frame Services

PN Inclusion's Visual Frame Services support Deafblind and multi-sensory impaired individuals by adapting British Sign Language (BSL) so it’s visible within a limited field of vision. Our expert interpreters use precise positioning to enhance clarity.

A qualified BSL interpreter adjusts their signing to fall within a visual frame
Signs are kept close to the body, just below or in front of the lips
Lighting and background are optimised to improve visibility
