Mark Applin

Mark is the founder of Signly and has been a huge supporter of Signing Banks UK.

Signly adds sign language to websites. Signly is one of our partner in SigningBanks.UK and our pages will be BSL enabled using Signly. They are represented on ourAdvisory Board.People for whom sign language is their first, preferred or only language have diverse literacy levels. Signly challenges the idea that English-only websites adequately serve sign language users – some people don’t or can’t easily use English. Through Signly, organisations can now easily break down these barriers, providing equal access to content, and reducing the risk of penalties associated with non-compliance.The costs of not addressing this issue are not just financial but social as well.Using Signly is easy: its low-code and one-time integration process takes about 10 minute
