Aramaic in Britain is kept alive mainly by the Assyrian and Chaldean Christian community, a few thousand strong and settled largely in west London, around Greenford and Hanwell in the borough of Ealing, with churches in Acton and South Ealing. Most trace their roots to Iraq, Syria, south-eastern Turkey and north-western Iran. The Aramaic and Syriac paperwork we handle tends to be civil: baptism, marriage and church records, along with asylum and settlement documents for the Home Office and family papers supporting citizenship applications. Aramaic is one of the world's oldest continuously written languages, and today its surviving Neo-Aramaic dialects are spoken by only a few hundred thousand people worldwide.
