We’re delighted to welcome Emma Gilbert, Detective Sergeant and manager of the UK’s Police Link Officers for Deaf People (PLOD) scheme, to the Linguistpd community. Her webinar was so well received and you can access the recording here.

How does the PLOD role differ from that of an interpreter? How can both professions work collaboratively to address issues impacting on policing in the Deaf community?
