About Stoke On Trent

Stoke-on-Trent is a unitary authority in Staffordshire, and much of the work that reaches us here runs through its courts and hospitals. The Stoke-on-Trent Combined Court Centre houses both the Crown Court and the county court, while first hearings and summary matters are dealt with at the city's magistrates' court. Royal Stoke University Hospital is one of the largest employers in the area, and Keele University sits a few miles to the west. Between them they keep up steady demand for interpreters and certified translations. The languages we are asked for reflect who lives here. Stoke has settled Pakistani, Indian and Bangladeshi communities, so Urdu, Punjabi and Bengali come up often, alongside Arabic. We are also called on for the rarer languages a single hearing or clinic appointment can turn on, which are usually the requests other agencies cannot fill.

About the Japanese language

The Japanese community in England and Wales numbered around 29,500 at the 2021 census, concentrated in London, particularly Golders Green and East Finchley, with further clusters around Japanese manufacturers such as the Toyota plant in Derbyshire and firms near Telford. Our Japanese work spans certified civil documents for Home Office and UKVI visa and settlement cases, commercial and legal paperwork for companies, and university transcripts and diplomas assessed by UK ENIC, alongside interpreting for business meetings, NHS appointments and court hearings. Japanese uses three writing systems together, which makes accurate certified translation a specialist task. Japanese is spoken by around 123 million people, almost all of them in Japan.
