Interpreters Near You in Thurso

Thurso has no sheriff court of its own, so anyone booking for a hearing here should look at the citation first. The nearest court is Wick Sheriff Court, about 19 miles south-east, and the Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service also lists Kirkwall Sheriff Court across the water in Orkney and Tain Sheriff Court and Justice of the Peace Court, some 58 miles south. An interpreter travelling from Thurso to Wick needs to set off well before the calling time, and a case listed in Kirkwall means a sea crossing, which is when a video link is often the more sensible choice if the court agrees to it.

NHS Highland runs Dunbar Hospital on the south-west side of the town, but most hospital appointments for families in the far north take place at Caithness General Hospital in Wick, with Wick Town and County Hospital close by. Letters that mention two Wick hospitals are easy to mix up, so give us the exact site when you book. We also take work from Highland Council services, GP practices, schools and Police Scotland across Caithness, from Castletown and Halkirk to the villages along the north coast as far as Tongue.

Two travel routes shape bookings here. Thurso station is on the Far North Line, and NorthLink's ferry sails from nearby Scrabster to Stromness, so visitors from Orkney often have appointments timed around the boat. North Highland College, part of the University of the Highlands and Islands, has its main campus in the town, and its students sometimes need help with a clinic, a tenancy or a police matter like anyone else. We take bookings 24/7 and our interpreters work face to face, by telephone or by video, which matters in a place where the next available interpreter may be a long drive away.
