Training SASLI BSL Interpreters













Training of British Sign Language Interpreters is always important for the Ishara Project. It helps us to ensure deaf minority ethnic people will receive the same standards of support from interpreters and also helps interpreters to deal with culturally sensitive or complex issues. The session was well attended by 12 interpreters in Glasgow and a Deaf Blind Interpreter. We would like to thank all the enthusiasm and learning shared at this session and look forward to followup work with all our interpreters in the future.  Well done to all the interpreters who attended and were awarded with our certificates!



BSL Awareness to ME Communities in Edinburgh

 


Ishara successfully delivered 2 BSL Awareness Sessions in Edinburgh with BEMIS and the Edinburgh and Lothians Sensory Partnership. Around 40 people attended both sessions with interest to follow up and learn more BSL. Thanks to all participants and to Frankie and Tariq for hosting us in RNIB Scotland Head Office.
