Happy to Translate (HTT) is an award winning national scheme which enables organisations to engage effectively with customers who speak little or no English.

Organisations of all sizes and types in both the public and private sectors can become a member of HTT. Our members are inclusive organisations that are committed to making their services available to all. HTT guidelines help members to embed an ethos of cultural awareness and sensitivity in every aspect of their communications. HTT policies and procedures ensure that customers are not marginalised as a result of language barriers.

HTT tools and processes equip your staff with the skills and knowledge needed to communicate with those who speak little or no English and provide practical assistance. As a member of HTT, your staff will be ready to handle any language issues that arise confidently and professionally.

Members Feedback

The HTT initiative helps us to be accessible to all of our stakeholders. The logo in particular is a fantastic tool - attractive, simple and instantly recognisable. We put it on the front of all of our publications: it's an asset to our brand.
