I am now set up to offer interpreting via videoconferencing such as Zoom.
Now the Governmental mandate to remain at home has been issued, I will not be charging cancellation fees on bookings made before 23/03/20 for dates thereafter, up to whatever date the restriction is lifted.
I understand the limitation to apply to BSL interpreting except for assignments at vital exempted services.
While Governmental advice regarding the novel coronavirus is advisory, I intend to maintain the Terms and Conditions as detailed on this page.
However, once mandatory advice is issued that impacts upon my assignments, I intend to do the following:
Not charge a cancellation fee for jobs cancelled after the advice becomes mandatory.
Not attend jobs that are not cancelled but ought to have been according to that advice. In those circumstances I would always contact the booker in advance.
Accept or turn down requests according to that advice.
Inspired by a unknown Western Rocky Mountains Tribe. From American Indian Myths and Legends Three-Legged Rabbit Fights the Sun - Posted by ~Little Wing~ (This story comes from an unknown Western Rocky Mountains Tribe) Once there was a rabbit with only three legs, but he made a wooden leg for himself so that he could move fast.
This is SO, so beautiful.
Frankly, if this turns into an Ian Sanborn fansite, then so be it…
