James Graham, Chief Executive Officer of An Comunn G\u00e0idhealach,<\/strong> said: \u201cYoung Gaelic speakers are very important in shaping the future of our community, and these events today highlight their incredible skills and potential. We\u2019re particularly excited for the first ever Struth event and to give youngsters an opportunity to engage in everyday chat with some of the best-known Gaelic speakers in Scotland.
\u201cThe M\u00f2d is a unique platform for the promotion of Gaelic language and culture and it\u2019s fantastic to start the week with the official launch of World Gaelic Week 2023. It\u2019s always exciting to see the new, innovative ways our community comes together to promote the language for all.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Joy Dunlop, Director Seachdain na G\u00e0idhlig, said:<\/strong> \u201cWe\u2019re delighted to announce the second ever Seachdain Na G\u00e0idhlig with this year\u2019s theme being Coming Together<\/em>, inspired by the post-pandemic recovery.
\u201cThe first  official Gaelic language week ever held in Scotland took place last year. It was a great success and we can\u2019t wait to build on this in 2023. It\u2019s a fantastic opportunity for people to celebrate and use Gaelic in their daily lives and recognise the language nationally and internationally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe would encourage any group, big or small, interested in organising an event as part of Seachdain Na G\u00e0idhlig to apply for one of our small grants.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
