@VickyNunn1 @dan_alun @DarrenNeilAdams All assessors are qualified interpreters in the language they assess, are very experienced legal interpreters and, in the case of BSL, they are all qualified assessors
@VickyNunn1 @dan_alun @DarrenNeilAdams Clarion have the contract to provide MoJ interpreters to the courts and The Language Shop (TLS) have the quality assurance contract. The MOJ is to be praised for making sure interpreters, of ALL languages are fit to work in courts. Approx 1% of each language is assessed
@BSLterplife@NRCPD I've emailed them and said Shame on you! Charging people for clarifying "common misunderstandings" is a problem that lies with them, not us. They should be making their portal and guidelines clearer so that there are no "common misunderstandings" @BSLTerplife@NRCPD@ASLIuK
@ollymurs We know that Olly! I don't think it would take you too long to record a BSL version. I think you could be a natural for learning the language. Give it a go and see if you can replace the video rather than scrapping it!
@JohnBishop100 you & Joe have 100% of my admiration for last night's documentary. What an amazing task & an amazing journey to take on Hope Joe gets to fully integrate with the deaf community with you & Mel there to support him. I'm a CODA so understand the journey you went on.
