The British Association of Barbershop Singers is a registered charity whose aim is to develop barbershop singing through education and encouragement. 

Harmony College is our premier event and one of which we can be rightly proud. This year sees us run our 42nd Annual College, a tremendous achievement, given that we are an organisation run entirely by volunteers.
