Devastating and thoughtful @BBCRadio4 File on 4 about public sector interpretation. No surprises though for those of us who care about interpretation in healthcare. No or (linguistically or contextually) inappropriate interpretation leads to obstetric violence, (1)

8pm tonight. Programme will mostly focus on public service interpreters in the NHS (who are paid even less than court interpreters) whose shortage leads to avoidable deaths of foreign patients. Why shortage? Pay so poor it's unsustainable. bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001sm8…

"When people who don't speak English, they are entitled to receive the support of #interpreters when dealing with public sector organisations. The service provides a lifeline for some of society's most vulnerable people to help them navigate places like hospitals, social services and courts. But BBC reporter Matthew Hill hears allegations the service is seriously failing those who need it most - with tragic consequences." Listen tonight at 8pm on BBC Radio 4 bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001sm8…
