John works with many museums and galleries across the UK. He leads BSL tours at London Zoo, Stonehenge, Tower Bridge and is an accredited BSL guide at Hampton Court Palace. He was the first profoundly deaf person to hold the roles of curator of a programme of BSL tours at the Royal Academy of Arts – such a role, and as External Examiner by the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland.
