CEO’s Greeting
The way we live and how we experience the world has changed. The UK is in a Coronavirus lockdown and our thoughts are with the people putting their own health and wellbeing at risk to take care of ours, and with the vulnerable people we are trying to shield.
Our businesses are also changing. Busy offices are deserted, and teams meet virtually. It’s important to stay connected, and to keep informed of the right things, the things that keep your business going.
Stay well and stay safe!
Raisa McNab
Chief Executive Officer

The role of interpreters in the fight against corona
UK schools are now closed due to the pandemic to all but the children of key workers and vulnerable children.
The ATC calls for public sector interpreters to be universally recognised as key workers, to enable them to undertake critical interpreting assignments, safe in the knowledge that their children can continue to attend school.
