Luke Mersh United Kingdom Local time: 10:05 Spanish to English
Dear colleagues. I am looking for websites that offer volunteering work for translations from Spanish to English. I have already looked at the UN Volunteering website, but there is none in this pair at the moment. If anybody know of any other good websites for this, then please let me know. Many thanks | | |

Thanks for the availability! @Susana. I was unable to register on that site, as I do not have enough experience. But many thanks anyway. | |

Hello Luke You might try Banana Link, an organisation promoting fair trade and ethical practices in the banana and pineapple industries. They also use English - Spanish translators. I volunteer for them, and it has given me very useful experience. www.bananalink.org.uk Good luck. | | |

Watching America | Mar 12, 2016 |
I've just registered with Watching America as a volunteer. You don't need professional translation experience, you just have to do a test. They ask you to translate one news article about the US from the foreign press into English every two weeks. Your name appears on the published translation and they will provide references for you in the future. | | |
