What Interpreting Services are available?

Our interpreting services have been carefully honed to truly provide what each customer needs. 

Face-to-Face Interpreting
For when you need an Interpreter right there with you – such as at a meeting, legal / court proceeding, social services contact session, or healthcare appointment. Most of our interpreting assignments take place in courts, solicitor offices, hospitals, doctors, dentists and other medical surgeries, schools, residences, businesses, factories or conferences / exhibitions. Your interpreter will, as standard, provide a consecutive interpreting service (where one person speaks after another, rather than simultaneously).

Visit our face to face interpreting page for more information - including simultaneous, conference interpreting and specialist options.

Remote Interpreting
When a face to face meeting isn’t the possible or the best option. Our interpreters work via telephone or video, using platforms including Zoom, Skype, Microsoft Teams and WhatsApp, etc.
