Interpreters Near You in Canterbury

Canterbury has two court buildings, and children cases appear in the lists of both, so the address on the notice decides where the interpreter goes. Canterbury Magistrates' Court on Broad Street hears criminal cases, children cases and domestic violence matters. Canterbury Combined Court Centre, in The Law Courts on Chaucer Road, takes criminal work as well as county court and family business: money claims, housing possession, bankruptcy, divorce, adoption and children cases, with a High Court district registry on site. For an employment or social security case, the nearest tribunal hearing centre is at Ashford House in Ashford, about 13 miles south-west.

Kent and Canterbury Hospital, about a mile south of the centre, is one of five hospitals run by East Kent Hospitals University NHS Foundation Trust. The trust's other sites are William Harvey in Ashford, QEQM in Margate, Buckland in Dover and the Royal Victoria in Folkestone, and a letter from the trust can name any of them, so confirm the site before the interpreter sets off. St Martins Hospital, about a mile east, is a mental health site run by Kent and Medway NHS and Social Care Partnership Trust. Canterbury City Council governs the city, and Kent Police covers the whole county.

The Canterbury district had about 157,400 residents at the 2021 Census. Two universities, the University of Kent and Canterbury Christ Church University, add a large student population, and students book interpreters for GP visits, tenancy problems and police matters like anyone else. The city has two stations, Canterbury West and Canterbury East, both served by Southeastern. Folkestone lies about 14 miles south, Dover about 14 miles south-east, Margate about 15 miles north-east, and Maidstone and Chatham some 24 to 25 miles west.
