Yesterday was #InterpreterAppreciationDay apparently. This is just so you know what we do when we're 'signing' in your meeting, event, performance. This is just the Eng to BSL bit. The #BSL to Eng, cross cultural, environment specific, etc stuff is extra.
To all the amazing sign language interpreting and translating professionals on our registers, thank you so much for upholding the standards and continuing to deliver high standards of language services for all d/Deaf and deafblind people. #InterpreterAppreciationDay
