GigWhat is a Menter Iaith?

A Menter (pl. Mentrau) Iaith, or language initiative, is a local organisation which offers support to communities to increase and develop their use of the Welsh language.  A Menter Iaith usually services a whole county, and it reflects the wish of local people to make more use of the language.  A Menter will offer advice and assistance to individuals, organisations and businesses, and will organise activities to raise the profile of the Welsh language.

You will find information about Welsh and bilingual services and provision in your area, and how to find it.  This is the one-stop-shop for the Welsh language in your area!

By now there is a network of Mentrau Iaith across Wales, and it’s very likely there is a Menter in your area.  Take a look at the map to find your local Menter.
