Tips on Booking a British Sign Language Interpreter

Here I have listed some information that you may find useful when booking an interpreter, a FAQ's section if you like. If you are an employer or employee and your requirements are 'work related' then it may worth checking out the Access to Work website as you may find that you are eligible for funding to pay for some or all of the costs of an interpreter.

The first thing to remember, is that interpreters are bound by a strict code of conduct so anything that is discussed before after or during the assignment will be held in the strictest confidence.

When booking an interpreter give as much notice as possible. In the case of a short notice/emergency appointment it may be useful to have more than one date/time in mind.

How long is the appointment? Assignments over 2 hours may require 2 interpreters. However this is dependent on the nature and content of the assignment, please feel free to contact me to discuss your requirements. It may also be useful to remember that appointments involving any type of interpreter often take longer than normal and this should be taken into account when scheduling the booking.
