 Language Point is
Sunderland's Interpretation and Translation Service.
Run by the City Council, it
is based at its Social Services Directorate.
Its objective is to provide a high-quality, impartial
and professional language support to organisations
and agencies who have clients with limited command
of English language. By doing so Language Point
facilitates the clients' equal access to public
services.
Interpretation and translation services are delivered
by a pool of sessional workforce. All staff undergo
a strict selection procedure and are trained to work
effectively in a wide range of public sector organisations.
Their development is continuous and needs-based. Professionals
are encouraged to take part in the identification, design
and delivery of training modules.
