our Commitment to Accesibility

At LITS, we believe that access to clear, respectful communication is a fundamental right — not a privilege. With nearly 11 million people in the UK experiencing some form of hearing loss, British Sign Language interpreting plays a vital role in ensuring equality across healthcare, legal services, education, and public life.

We don’t just offer BSL as another service. We see it as a responsibility. Our team is committed to supporting Deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals by breaking down barriers and ensuring that they are heard, understood, and included — no matter the setting.

By working with qualified, culturally aware interpreters and listening to the real-world needs of our clients, we help public services, businesses, and professionals meet their accessibility obligations while delivering communication that is truly inclusive and human-centred.
