Our provider, DA Languages ltd, have provided languages services to practices across Lambeth, Lewisham, and Southwark since March 2020.
All interpreters hold appropriate interpreting qualifications and undergo rigorous assessments to ensure that they have the skills required to interpret professionally.
In addition to this, all of their interpreters must sign a Confidentiality Agreement and accept a comprehensive Code of Conduct before they are accepted to work for DA Languages.
Please remember the interpreter is completely impartial so will not offer advice or guidance and will interpret exactly what is said by both parties.
