In February, Zebra Uno’s Co-Director Nikki collaborated with the England and Wales Cricket Board’s Vitality Blast – a professional cricket competition – on their mission to display cricketers using BSL on screens at cricket venues across England and Wales.

This initiative aimed to promote anti-discrimination messages while raising awareness and understanding of BSL: https://www.ecb.co.uk/news/3936381/joel-harris-why-having-sign-language-on-big-screens-is-such-an-important-step

As a BSL Consultant, Nikki worked closely with two of England’s Deaf Cricketers and well-known Vitality Blast players to communicate these important messages in BSL, which were filmed and displayed on the screens.
