Interpreters Near You in Balfour

Balfour is the only village on Shapinsay, and the Orkney Ferries boat from Kirkwall docks at its slipway after a crossing of about 25 minutes. For anyone who lives there, nearly every hospital appointment or hearing begins with that boat, and the timetable sets the day. Orkney Ferries' winter timetable for the island runs from 28 September 2026 to 1 May 2027, and the company advises booking vehicles in advance because it cannot guarantee a place for unbooked cars, so reserve the interpreter's crossing when the appointment is made.

The hospital is in Kirkwall, and it is called the Balfour. NHS Orkney's Balfour Hospital moved into its present building in July 2019, so a letter giving an appointment at the Balfour means Kirkwall, not the village; an interpreter new to Orkney should be told. Kirkwall Sheriff Court, in the Sheriff Court House on Watergate about 4 miles south-west, handles cases from the whole Orkney Islands area. Its sittings fall in only two weeks of the month, the first and the third, so hearings come in clusters.

Kirkwall Airport is about 2.5 miles south-east of Kirkwall. We cover Balfour and the rest of Shapinsay as well as Kirkwall and Stromness, about 15 miles west, and for a short consultation a telephone or video interpreter spares everyone the ferry. Bookings are taken day and night.
