Tools | Spelling and Grammar will do an immediate spell check.
However Tools | Options | Spelling and Grammar Tab will allow you to set up auto checking of spelling and grammar as you type. Very useful. Mis-spelt words are highlighted in red. Right click on the mis-spelt word and you will be presented with a number of alternative words. Poor grammar is highlighted in green and offers suggested improvements.
Make sure that you have English UK set as your dictionary. This is done in Tools | Language | set language

STEP 1: Select the text you want to spell check, or place the cursor anywhere in the text to spell check the entire document. STEP 2: Go to the Tools menu. STEP 3: Select Spelling and Grammar. The Spelling and Grammar window opens, and Word begins spell checking. STEP 4: View any flagged words or phrases in the upper-left window. Just above this window, you will see the reason Word has flagged this text. STEP 5: Check the Suggestions window in the lower-left corner of the Spelling and Grammar window for correction suggestions. STEP 6: Click the Change button to make the suggested correction. STEP 7: Click Change All if you want all instances of this error corrected within the text that you are spell checking. STEP 8: Enter your own change if you disagree with the suggested correction (or if there is no suggestion) by placing your cursor in the flagged text window and correcting the text as you would in any Word document. STEP 9: Click the Change button to implement your correction. STEP 10: Click Ignore if no correction is needed; click Ignore All to skip all further occurrences of this "misspelling."
