Whilst much interpreting work is related to languages, there is also a need to have sign language interpreters. These people will help those who are deaf or hard of hearing, by converting spoken words into sign language and back again.
Sign language interpreters can work in a variety of fields. This includes medical, educational and community settings.
To fully support inclusion and accessibility the interpreter must follow a specific language system, more often than not British Sign Language (BSL) in the UK.
