International Translations

We are now expanding our portfolio of translations of our main publications beyond the 20 most common languages used in the UK following feedback at meetings and our enquiries page. We are really grateful to the charity Translators without Borders who are helping us to reach out to mothers and their families of all nationalities. Newer additional translations have been generously provided by OAA members to help us to support some languages. Where possible these have been quality assured by professionals and/or peer colleagues. We trust these translations to be as accurate as possible and hope that they are useful to you.
