At Interpreting and Translation Linguists Collective (LC) Agency, we are committed to contributing to society and supporting our linguists through a range of initiatives. Our Charity and Social Contribution promises to aid three main campaigns:
LC is dedicated to the preservation of endangered languages. We actively support and promote initiatives aimed at raising awareness and preserving rare and dying languages. We encourage individuals and organisations to approach us for financial assistance to fund specific projects. These projects should have a defined start and end date and provide details of the activities and how they will benefit the cause. LC aims to fund a maximum of 50% of an acceptable project, subject to the availability of funds at LC. Part this campaign LC organises its yearly conference on the International Mother Language Day #IMLD to celebrate all of our mother language and promote preserving and use of endangered languages.
LC believes in the importance of promoting inclusivity and accessibility through informal sign language education. Schools and academic institutions are welcome to approach LC for funding specific projects. LC will also attempt to approach these institutions to provide promotional materials, especially among BAME communities.
LC can provide financial aid to linguists who are struggling to qualify or maintain registration with regulatory bodies like NRPSI due to financial difficulties, cost of living, and unexpected personal circumstances. To ensure fair distribution among linguists, LC will fund no more than 5 linguists in the same language. For example, if LC receives 3 applications, 2 from Language X and 1 from Language Y, and the funds available are limited, 1 linguist from Language X and 1 linguist from Language Y will be provided aid. These funds come with specific terms and conditions to ensure a fair and transparent process. Full details, terms, and conditions, as well as the application process, are available through LC’s HR Team.
Should you require any further details or clarification on these policies for your bid, please feel free to get in touch with us. We are open to additional suggestions or changes that may be needed. Funding available subject to LC making profit and or marketing budget beyond necessary.
