A non-statutory board of mainly BSL users was established in March 2023. Its role is to advise the government on matters of importance to Deaf people and on implementing the BSL Act.
The British Sign Language (BSL) Advisory Board aims to make sure the views and voices of Deaf people across the UK are at the heart of the work of the UK government. The tenure of the current Board finishes in December 2025 and the Disability Unit is recruiting now for board members and an independent co-chairperson.
Members will use their expertise and experience to help ensure the voices of Deaf people can help to shape policy and strategy across government.
