Hafwen Clarke taught 500 people how to say thank you in sign language on the lawn of Buckingham Palace .
The 19-year-old was invited to make history by becoming the first person to use British Sign Language to deliver a speech at the palace.
Hafwen was born without hearing into a family where her mother was a first -language Welsh speaker and her father, from England , had learned some of the language as an adult.
Hafwen moved away from home to the Deaf Academy in Exmouth , Devon .
She is now learning to be a hairdresser through a partnership scheme with Exeter College .
Hafwen is keen to pass this encouragement on to other deaf and disabled young people.
"Every deaf person is exactly the same as a hearing person they need to get involved and participate".
