Interpreters Near You in Stromness

Stromness is in the south-western part of the Orkney Mainland, about 12 miles west of Kirkwall in a straight line, and it is where the NorthLink ferry from Scrabster on the Scottish mainland comes in. The MV Hamnavoe makes that crossing, and Orkney Ferries also sails from the town to Graemsay and Hoy. People who arrive by sea sometimes need an interpreter for the first appointment after they land, so a booking can hinge on a sailing time.

Most bookings, though, end up in Kirkwall. Kirkwall Sheriff Court, about 12 miles east, covers the whole of the Orkney Islands area, and the nearest court on the mainland is Wick Sheriff Court, about 37 miles south. NHS Orkney's Balfour Hospital is also in Kirkwall, in a building that opened in 2019. Orkney Islands Council runs its services from Kirkwall too, which means the trip east is part of many appointments for people living in Stromness; build it into the timing, and allow for weather if the interpreter is also meeting a ferry that day.

Scotland's Census 2022 recorded 1,700 people in Stromness, the second most populous settlement in Orkney after Kirkwall. The Orkney Islands form their own council area. Balfour on Shapinsay is about 15 miles east, and Thurso and Castletown on the far side of the Pentland Firth are 26 to 27 miles south. Bookings are open 24/7, for an interpreter in the room, on the telephone or on a video call.
