This will be a wonderful week. I cannot recommend Bristol Translates highly enough for early career and emerging translators - or indeed anyone who is translation-curious

[Oxford Translates @OxTranslates]

Applications for Bristol Translates 2025 are still open - the deadline for scholarships is fast approaching at the end of this week!
