Join us for “Working with Interpreters,” an engaging workshop led by Sarah Crowther, Director of REAP Refugees in Effective and Active Partnership.

This interactive session is designed for anyone needing an interpreter to communicate effectively with asylum seekers, refugees, or others whose first language isn’t English (note: Sign language will not be covered).

We will discuss your experiences, priorities, and the principles and practices of working with interpreters. Learn what standards of professionalism to expect and explore contexts from using enthusiastic volunteers to booking experienced professionals.

Additionally, we will consider what benefits refugees might gain from interpreting and whether it’s better to use agencies or develop alternative working methods

Workshop Perks:

· Expert Insights: Gain wisdom from Sarah Crowther’s extensive experience.

· Practical Skills: Practical tips for effective communication with non-English speakers.

· Strategic Thinking: Consider whether to partner with agencies or forge new paths.

· Networking Opportunity: Connect with like-minded professionals and volunteers.
