We are Let’s Interpret

We are a community of female interpreters.

Our project supports bilingual and multilingual women living in Cardiff to develop and use their language skills, for the benefit of both them and their community.

Training

We provide our members with the training and support they need to become competent, professional interpreters. Our partnership with Cardiff University gives our members access to accredited Public Service Interpreting courses.

Community language services

We offer community language services to service providers across the city of Cardiff, whilst at the same time providing our members with valuable work experience.

Equal access

We are committed to improving equal access to services and support for migrant communities and seekers of sanctuary in the city of Cardiff.

Feedback from our beneficiaries

“I’m seeing everything with different eyes now. Not just in relation to interpreting, but also skills and knowledge that I can apply to every aspect of my life”

― Let’s Interpret member

“Let’s Interpret provides interpretation services that empower us to connect meaningfully with our clients… This language support is essential to overcoming barriers that could otherwise hinder access to vital mental health services”

― CCAWS (Community Care and Wellbeing Service)
