Ask for an interpreter

If you're receiving a service, for example from the NHS, social care services or Citizens Advice, you can ask if there is an interpreter available.

Online translation tools should not be used instead of getting an interpreter – for example, in an NHS or healthcare setting.

Translate this website and our booklets

You can translate information on the Marie Curie website and in our booklets using an online translator.

Online translators can translate words and phrases, but they may not be able to accurately translate the meaning of the information. If you're not sure what something means, check with your doctor or nurse. If you are making decisions about your health, finances or care, always speak with a trained professional.

There are different online translators available. Here is an example of how to use Google translate. We do not check the accuracy of the translation and are not responsible for the content provided by their website.
