About the Event
Equal Dreams invited our Speech-to-Text interpreters for a get-together after a long period of no meet-ups due to the pandemic.
This event will provide a platform for our team of access workers to get to know each other better through games and a sharing session 🎉
There will also be a segment where our Deaf Trainee Instructors will teach our interpreters basic Singapore Sign Language in the education setting.
Refreshments will be provided by Equal Dreams.
