Why it matters

Care that feels like home starts with being understood

For many older Urdu speakers, English was learned later in life and becomes harder with age, illness or dementia. A carer who speaks Urdu can explain care clearly, understand worries and offer real company.

Being able to say “I’m in pain”, “I’m worried” or “I’d like my tea a bit stronger” in your own language makes all the difference.

What our carers understand

  • Conversation in Urdu, and help with calls to family
  • Halal meals, cooked the way they like
  • Respect for prayer times, with time and space to pray
  • Support through Ramadan and Eid
  • A female or male carer for personal care on request
  • Respect for modesty, and for the family’s role in decisions

Dementia and language

When English starts to slip

The Alzheimer’s Society explains that people who speak more than one language often lose the one they learned later first. For many older people, that’s English.

Being cared for in Urdu can ease confusion, reduce frustration and help your loved one feel like themselves again.
