CARL SARGEANT AM IN WORLD RECORD BREAKING SUCCESS
Carl Sargeant, AM for Alyn and Deeside, has taken part in a successful attempt to break the Guinness World Record for the most people simultaneously performing sign language to a song at different venues.
Carl Sargeant AM joined fellow AMs, Afasic Cymru, and Assembly staff in Cardiff Bay to sign “Sunshine in my Heart.” At the same time, 14,000 people in venues across Wales were signing the same song. This is three times the number of people involved in the previous World Record.
Mr Sargeant said: “I am delighted to be involved in setting a new Guinness World Record for signing.
“Six percent of children will, at some stage, have a speech, language or communication difficulty, and at least 1 in 500 children will experience severe long-term difficulties. “In coming together to set a new World Record for signing we are also raising awareness of the children and young people who are affected by the hidden disability of speech, language and communication impairments.”
