With an estimated 151,000 users of BSL in the UK, it is more important than ever to make conferences, live events and digital content accessible to everyone. Providing BSL interpretation and translation not only promotes awareness of BSL users but also promotes inclusivity. We are delighted to partner with the CIPR for their annual conference and hope that our services make a difference to some of those attending or even others who hadn't previously considered attending. The Involve team are looking forward to joining the event and will be there to answer any questions you may have about our services.
