Interpreting Service

One of the key barriers to people in Bedford accessing services is language. QPCO supports clients in need, to access community based interpreters via the Intervention officers service.  

We can provide for organisation and charities interpreting for social groups and workshops . In line with our Charitable status where a service has a legal duty to provide interpreters, we only work to get people to the point where that duty is engaged.  We advise clients and partner organisations that accredited interpreters should be used where legal or formal proceedings are involved.
