The Royal Greenwich Interpreting Service (RGIS) provides face to face language interpreters, British sign language (BSL) interpreters and the translation of documents as required to enable residents to access local health services and services provided by the Council.

The RGIS is a confidential service that can help to ensure that non-English speaking clients and patients receive equal access to council services and local health services.

RGIS aims to provide interpreting and translation in most languages taking into accounts the local population demographics. We are covering as many as 102 languages spoken in the borough.

Experience of working with health or social care professionals is desirable and other areas of expertise such as medical and legal interpreting are certainly an advantage.
