"BSL is my first language and I rely on Interpreters to access everyday life. When I am using Tina Holmes Interpreting Services, I have the reassurance and confidence that there is a high standard of professionalism, attitude and approach from Tina. A pleasure to work with..."
Paul Newbury

"I have worked with Tina since 2016 - itself, a recommendation as I've been a client ever since! She is always completely professional in her approach, whilst tailoring her style and demeanour to each lipspeaking assignment.
As a creative practitioner who works in diverse and sometimes challenging settings, Tina's calm and positive attitude ensures I'm always receiving full information."
DR (Visual Artist)
"I have used Tina as an interpreter on several occasions and have been nothing but impressed by the service she provides. A warm, friendly, efficient and organised interpreter. In fact, as soon as she has finished working for me, I book her straight away for the next time I will need her!"

RM
Medical assignment
“Tina interpreted one of our cupcake classes on behalf of the Royal Association for Deaf people. She was a very professional interpreter and very approachable by everyone - including me! She helped to make our teaching easy and fun. Tina kept everyone calm and focussed. It was really a pleasure to meet her.”
Sarah Thomas
Owner of The Cupcake Oven, Essex
"Tina provided a professional, friendly service when I visited a school with a Resource Base for Hearing Impaired Pupils and was able to match the different signing needs of the students, to convey my medical terms and jargon quickly and accurately."
Richard Webb-Stevens
London Ambulance Service
“Tina supports me as a lipspeaker both remotely and face to face, using additional signs and clear lip patterns. Tina is my first choice when I need communication support, as I can understand Tina and I am comfortable with her.”
NB
Deaf Advocate
“When it came to the music technology department Tina described with her hands the sounds, its pitch, volume and intensity from machines. I did hear them with my aids in but a translation confirms what I’m hearing."
