Natasha Williams and Liz Athey were invited to speak at the first year celebration event for the National Network for Translation which took place in November at the University of Salford.

Other speakers included Fiona Harris from the Directorate General for Translation at the European Commission, Dr Valeria Henitiuk from the British Centre for Literary Translations and Dr Catherine Greensmith from the Institute of Translation and Interpreting. The event was also used to mark the launch of the Graduate Placement Scheme Portal, the culmination of the Graduate Apprenticeship scheme in which The Translation People played a role on the steering committee.
