Advice in other languages

We can provide you with an interpreter service if English is not your first language and you need advice about getting help with the cost of any of the following:

  • NHS prescriptions

  • Sight tests
  • Glasses or contact lenses
  • NHS wigs and fabric supports
  • Travel to receive NHS treatment

Contact the service on 0300 3301343.

Find out about call charges

When you call, tell us in English that you need advice in another language and tell us what that language is.  If you cannot speak English, ask a friend who can to tell us what you need.

We will provide an interpreter, usually within a few minutes. If an interpreter is not available when you call, we will make an appointment to call you back.

Alternatively, if your language is listed here, you can call our language services provider (Dals) directly. Select the link for your spoken language for instructions.
