Our Cynnig Cymraeg – Welsh Offer

Logo Cynnig Cymraeg 02 Reduced

Tir Coed is extremely proud of its Welsh roots. As an organisation, we are keen to actively connect and engage communities with our work through the use of the Welsh language. We operate bilingually in all areas of our work, and we are fully committed to continually developing and expanding our use of the language.

As part of our Cynnig Cymraeg / Welsh language offer:

You can:

  1. Participate in courses through the medium of Welsh*, and have access to supporting materials in Welsh or bilingually
  2. Contact us in Welsh by phone, email or via social media
  3. Speak Welsh with staff and volunteers who are wearing the orange ‘I speak Welsh’ badge

We will:

  1. Encourage our staff to use their Welsh language skills and give them the opportunity to learn
  2. Continue to maintain our fully bilingual website

*Where Welsh-speaking tutors are not available we can offer a translation service. We aim to expand our current provision.

We welcome feedback about our Welsh language provision so that we can continue to improve.
