Menter Iaith Sir Ddinbych’s goals…
Our long-term aims are:
- Normalising the use of the Welsh language for most of the County’s population for all aspects of life
- Ensure that opportunities and encouragement is available for those who move here and that non-Welsh speaking residents are able to learn the language
- Ensure that there are opportunities for the native residents to develop their information regarding the language and their use of the language
- Influence on a vast range of social, economical, cultural and educational activities in the county to develop it to be thoroughly bilingual or Welsh
