Why Choose Us

  1. Our commitment to quality

We’re proud to deliver excellent training through our highly qualified team of tutors – all of whom are deaf and use BSL as their first language. Their deep understanding of the language, culture and community ensures each class is taught with expertise and passion.

  1. Our BSL courses are taught in small groups

You’ll have opportunities to work in pairs and on a one-to-one basis with the tutor. This creates a positive environment where you can feel confident and supported in your learning journey.

  1. We increase deaf awareness and BSL access

In addition to our BSL courses, we offer bespoke deaf awareness and BSL taster courses tailored to meet the specific needs of organisations and businesses. Whether you’re a private company, public service or charity, our training will help you to develop a deeper understanding of deaf culture and communication barriers – plus how to improve accessibility for deaf and hard-of-hearing people. Our aim is to help organisations provide better, more inclusive services, ensuring that deaf individuals can access the same opportunities as their hearing peers.

  1. We offer community activities and resources

These are designed to foster social inclusion and improve the quality of life for those who identify as deaf or hard-of-hearing. From coffee morning groups and social clubs to interpreting and support services, we are here to help.
