Hearing or deaf, you’re all welcome@and @portyparkrun come and join us! There’ll be cake tomorrow ;)

What a lovely surprise ! Thank you, thank you. Very generous of you @UkAdept no good for the figures though, very naughty :)) Very much looking forward to future discussions. Lots of respect from team ALS @ALSLips #collaboraion #teamwork #mutualrespect

Lovely to see so many people waiting in anticipation for the delivery of our #lipspeaking workshop. What a privilege. Thank you for your attention @UkAdept. We hope you enjoyed the session @UCLan #csw #lipspeaking #youth #deaf #yourchoice. Let’s begin! 👄

Conclusions from @RobertGLeeUK very interesting talk indeed. Thank you!

Interpreters, referring to yourself in the 3rd person is a good way to confuse people and make things awkward. It's not how people normally speak. #AdeptUK2018

3 inter-related axes of role space broken down.

Err on the side of being normal, and if that doesn't work, ramp it up. What do you do when talking to a friend and you miss something? When interpreting, aim for that. #AdeptUK2018

Role is manifested by behaviours (linguistic and others). Role behaviours do not exist in a vacuum. Role behaviours are reflections of mental Models, which reflect interpreters' Worldviews. #AdeptUK2018

Interpreters aren't invisible, if they were, how would Deaf people see them? #AdeptUK2018

A quote, not about interpreting, but the very essence of what ‘Role’ is. Roles are not what we have, they are what we do. #AdeptUK2018

It is important to look at how people use language within one language to understand communication and cooperation. #AdeptUK2018

Interesting background from @RobertGLeeUK telling us how he got to where he is today.

Lots of giggles of understanding as we watch this video. HeeHee! #AdeptUK2018
