We're busy bees this autumn!

Whew! The start of the college term is upon us and like interpreters up and down the country, we are very busy trying to cover the interpreting needs of not just students, but all other kinds of interpreting work as well.

We really want to try and cover as much work as we can between us, but we cannot always guarantee availability at this time.

To best help us in helping you, we would ask clients to please contact us as early as possible if you need an interpreter, which allows us to most effectively plan. Ideally two weeks notice should be given.

Asking us to cover an assignment with just a day or two’s warning will in most cases mean we are NOT AVAILABLE.

SO PLEASE, plan early, call early and book early, to have the best chance of ensuring an interpreting service.

Thanks and enjoy the Autumn!

Some details would vary between here and the USA, and you may not be going through an agency but by and large this remains a good source of information for academics, tutors, and disability / access officers to using a sign language interpreter.

New Information Leaflet

We’re delighted to announce the publication of a new information leaflet about interpreting for the Cork area.

The leaflet will be available to pick up in the offices of Deaf service providers in Cork, including the Cork Deaf Club and the Cork Deaf Association. It will be used in a promotion of the interpreter service in Cork with courts, hospitals, and other service providers to ensure that there is an awareness of the rights of Deaf people to interpreters, and also an awareness of how to book one.

The leaflet was published with the assistance of the Cork Deaf Association and has been designed in parallel with our website, www.corkinterpreter.com.

Download the leaflet in PDF format here.
