We're branching out 😆. Our Newcastle course will be delivered over 10 weekends, the majority of teaching will be face to face with some online sessions to supplement your learning. If you would like to find out more, email us. [email protected]👌

The Together Conference is being hosted online on 13–14 June, and while I’m really looking forward to the content, the thought of sitting at home alone watching it isn’t hugely appealing.

So, I thought I’d put some feelers out…
Would anyone be interested in meeting up with other like‑minded interpreters to watch the conference together, live and in person?

The idea would be to share the viewing experience, pause to chat, exchange ideas, ask questions, and have some good discussions around the topics — all while enjoying a cup of tea and a slice of cake ☕🍰

If that sounds like something you’d be interested in, let me know and we can see if there’s enough interest to make it happen.
