Contacting us

You can reach us using InterpretersLive! video relay service, available seven days a week between 8am and 8pm. You sign in British Sign Language (BSL), and a remote BSL/ English interpreter will connect you to our team.

How does it work?

  • You connect to a BSL/ English interpreter who can see what you sign.
  • The interpreter calls us and relays your message.
  • You will see the interpreter sign our reply directly on your screen.

You can also pre-book BSL video interpreters or other types of remote communication support anytime, anywhere, via any video platform.

Need urgent support or in crisis?

Use the SignVideo app or website to contact NHS 111. The NHS 111 team will connect you with us using a video BSL/English interpreter.

Talking therapies in BSL

NHS England partners with the Deaf health charity SignHealth to provide talking therapies in British Sign Language (BSL). This means you can receive support directly from a therapist who signs.
