Where to find Irish translators?

    I'm writing an epistolary novel involving two Irish girls. Both were born in rural Ireland, but one girl is sent to live with relatives in the US and the other makes her way in Dublin. There's a point in the story when they exchange a few letters written in Irish.

    I am assuming that there are certified translators who could translate the drafts of these chapters into Irish? Is there a particular agency or organization that I could contact to find a translator?

    I can't post the URL as I am getting a message saying that I am a new user, so go
    to the www dot gaeilge dot ie website.

    You can choose to see the site in Irish or English.

    On menu bar on top of page click on 7th from left.
    Translators/Terms Aistreoitheoirí/Téarmaí
    On left hand side of vertical list click on

    Accredited system for translators and editors/Na córais chrediúnaithe d'aistreoitheoirí agus d'eagarthóirí

    When you click on it, just below it you will see
    Accreditation systems for translators

    In the middle to the page click on
    The panel.

    A MS Word document will open given you a list of accredited translators
    Click on this

    and you will see a list of accredited translators.
