"Ashanti" is the older English spelling of Asante, the people and kingdom whose capital is Kumasi. When a client asks for an Ashanti interpreter, they almost always mean an interpreter in Asante Twi, and that is who we send. It is the form of Akan a Ghanaian from almost anywhere in the south is likely to follow, so an Ashanti interpreter is a sound choice when you are not sure exactly where in Ghana somebody is from.

Want an Ashanti interpreter in Chatham? Phone us on 0800 2425 125 or send the booking to quotes@uklinguisticservices.co.uk; if the person comes from Kumasi or elsewhere in the Ashanti Region, put that in the message.

Local Ashanti Interpreters Around Chatham

The census does not count Ashanti on its own: Asante speakers are included under Akan, alongside Fante and Akuapem speakers. What it does show is that the language is concentrated in London and a few towns around it. Our Asante Twi interpreters are spread the same way, so for Chatham we'll offer whoever can reach you and, if nobody can, a remote interpreter.

Ashanti to English Interpreter in Chatham

Asante society gives a lot of weight to titles. Chiefs and queen mothers are addressed as Nana, and a chief is known by a stool name, sometimes with a number after it, like a monarch. On a UK form that stool name can look like a second identity. An interpreter who knows the custom can explain it before anyone starts to suspect a false name.

Ashanti Interpreter for Business Meetings in Chatham

The Ashanti Region produces cocoa, timber and gold, and some UK firms deal with suppliers and landowners there. Senior Asante businesspeople often speak excellent English, but negotiations with elders or a family that owns land are frequently held in Asante Twi, with greetings and courtesies to the elders before any figures are discussed.

Ashanti Medical Interpreter in Chatham

At a hospital bedside, the Ashanti interpreter often has several relatives to deal with as well as the patient, because decisions about an older person's care are usually shared across the family. It helps the clinician to know who the family regards as the one who speaks for them.

Two courts stand in Chatham itself. Medway (Chatham) Magistrates Court and Family Court, at The Court House on The Brook, hears criminal cases, family work and social security appeals. Medway County Court and Family Court has its main entrance at Gun Wharf and takes money claims, housing possession, divorce, bankruptcy, adoption and children cases, with a High Court district registry in the same building. The next nearest are in Maidstone, about 8 miles south, where Maidstone Combined Court Centre sits in The Law Courts on Barker Road and the magistrates' court on Palace Avenue.

Read the letterhead with care in this town, because "Medway" can mean the magistrates, the county court, the council or the hospital. Medway Maritime Hospital, run by Medway NHS Foundation Trust, stands on the Gillingham side of the boundary, a little over a mile from Chatham. Medway Council is the unitary authority for Chatham, Gillingham, Rochester, Strood and Rainham, and had about 279,800 residents across its area at the 2021 Census. Kent Police covers Medway as part of its North Division.

The Royal Navy's dockyard here closed on 31 March 1984 after more than four centuries of work. Some 84 acres are now the Chatham Historic Dockyard museum, and much of the remaining land is being built on as Chatham Maritime, so an address there is the old dockyard, not the town centre. Chatham station serves the North Kent and Chatham Main Lines, with trains to London Victoria, Charing Cross and, by High Speed 1, St Pancras. Rochester is about a mile west, and Grays, Basildon and Southend lie across the Thames to the north. Requests for Chatham are handled 24/7, and interpreters can attend in person or join by telephone or video.
