Welsh language

We're committed to treating Welsh and English on an equal basis when carrying out our public business. Additionally, we are dedicated to helping to raise the profile of the language and culture to residents and employees.

Our five-year strategy describes how we will aim to raise the profile of the Welsh language and culture with our residents and our employees.
