Last October 2022, David Falguera and I went to the Association of Deaf in Manresa (Casa Social del Sord de Manresa i Comarques). Its origins go back to 1953 and, thus, this year 2023 marks 70 years since its foundation.

The association is still active and has registered partners, of which we have selected a total of four to make the recordings of the corpus. Two of them are elderly, while the other two are middle-aged. Unfortunately, no young people have registered to date, but we are still in contact with the association so that if they do so later, we can record them. Precisely, one of the elderly people we have recorded is the president of the association of Manresa, who has held this position for many years now, with the objective of promoting the integration and inclusion of the Deaf in society, as well as offering Catalan Sign Language courses.

Finally, we would like to thank the Casa Social del Sord de Manresa i Comarques for their participation. They opened their doors on a Sunday so we could go and make the recordings of the corpus.
