Celebrating 35 Years of ABSLTA

For the past 35 years, we've been a big part of the growth and development of BSL teaching. From our early days to now, we've seen BSL teaching become more recognised and respected.This wouldn't have been possible without the hard work of many dedicated people who helped shape BSL education into what it is today.
Take a look back with us at our history, learn about the important people who have led the way.
