We support Deaf BSL users to train as BSL tutors to deliver Family BSL classes, Deaf Awareness Training and BSL Courses.
Our BSL courses, available to families, businesses, charities, schools, statutory organisations, and members of the public, bridge communication gaps and promote community understanding.
An extraordinary legacy gift donated to us by the late Jose Harris, means that we are able to offer a limited number of free places for deaf attendees to our public BSL courses and Level 1 Qualification courses. Please contact info@accessbedford.org.uk for details.
Our CPD-accredited courses help professionals fulfil their required CPD hours.
Message training@accessbedford.org.uk for details of the next course.
