Language Line

If English is not your first or preferred language you can still use our service.

NHS 111 also uses interpretation service, Language Line, to support callers who cannot or prefer not to speak English.

Language Line is private, confidential and free to use.

To use Language Line:

  • Call NHS 111
  • Tell the call handler that you need an interpreter
  • Tell the call handler the name of your preferred language.

Once you are connected to an interpreter you will have a three way conversation with NHS 111 to explain the problem in your language and get the help you need.
