Interpreting Services
Deafblind Interpreters
A DeafBlind interpreter is a highly trained professional who provides communication support for individuals that have both hearing and vision loss. These interpreters use various methods to facilitate communication, such as tactile sign language, close vision interpreting, visual frame, and/or haptic communication. The communication method for DeafBlind people is usually very individual.
BSL English Interpreters
A BSL (British Sign Language) English interpreter is a professional who facilitates communication between Sign Language users and spoken language users.
The role of a BSL English interpreter is to convey the message from one language to the other, whilst maintaining the intent and tone.
STTRs & Lipspeakers
STTRs and Lipspeakers are two different types of communication support professionals. STTRs (Speech-to-Text Reporters) use specialised software and either palantype or stenography techniques to provide a real-time transcription of spoken language into written text. Lipspeakers, are trained professionals who use a combination of lipspeaking and visual cues to enable the person using their services to lipread them.

"I have been using Interpreting Matters for nearly two years and they have been fantastic arranging all of my interpreters for my courses. Each time I send a request for interpreters, they go above and beyond to arrange them quickly, with a professional and friendly manner. If I have a question, they always reply promptly. All of the interpreters I have had have been absolutely fantastic and supportive. I would not have been able to progress in my business without them!
