Interpreter services are available in multiple languages.

Call our Interpreter service on 9840 9355.

We value our multicultural community and want to make sure you can communicate with us in the way that you prefer. Over 40 per cent of Manningham residents speak a language other than English at home.

 

Interpreter service

Communicate with us through the Translating and Interpreting Service if you do not speak or understand English.

The interpreter service will contact the relevant council area and act as a direct translator between the caller and Council.

All interpreters are accredited with the National Accreditation Authority for Translators and Interpreters (NAATI) to ensure the highest standards of customer service available to non-English speaking customers.

Easy English

Sometimes information about Council services can be hard to understand. We've created Easy English guides to some of our most important information.
