We are proud to have been researching and piloting a range of deaf accessible projects in the past few years. We currently run a number of our *projects and *classes with BSL communication support and have a deaf ‘BSL Engagement officer’ who is supporting us in developing a strong link with the deaf community.

We offer a range of BSL introduction courses and our staff and volunteers are learning BSL level 1.

Please keep an eye on our future BSL courses and BSL accessible projects.

FAQ: Tell me more about your connection to the BSL community

We have a strong connection with the British Sign Language (BSL) community and offer BSL-interpreted events and classes to ensure that our programs are accessible to the deaf and hard of hearing. If you require BSL interpretation, please let us know in advance.

*we try to make our classes as inclusive as possible so we are happy to offer hardship passes which will offer free passes to most of our classes for anyone unable to fund their classes. If you have a serious injury or disability, and wish to take part in our classes please let us know and we would be happy to offer a consultation with our director.
