Hi Ciell, Thanks for organising this. And apologies for not getting back to you sooner. I understand that I might be too late to raise this, but I think it'd be good to have WLM FAQs page to be translated to the top ten languages spoken in the UK other than English (*Polish, Panjabi, Urdu, Bengali, Gujarati, Arabic, French, Chinese, Portuguese, Spanish*). I'm sure most of these languages will already be covered with translations, I still wanted to drop a line here.
