The Mentrau offer community events and activities in order to promote use of the Welsh language.

Menter BGTM works in the local community in many ways to create opportunities for people to use Welsh. This includes:

Budd y cyhoedd:

Mae gweithgareddau elusennol yr elusen wedi cyfrannu at dwf yn y defnydd o’r iaith Gymraeg ym Mlaenau Gwent, Torfaen a Mynwy. Mae’r Fenter wedi codi lefelau hyder a chodi ymwybyddiaeth o’r iaith Gymraeg yn lleol.

"Another busy year for Menter BGTM once again with many changes. Firstly, I would like to thank Eleri Rosier, our former Chairman, Stephen Bale, our former secretary and Andy Warburton, our former treasurer for all their work they’ve done for the Menter. I would also like to welcome Bob Sanders and Kevin Egan to the Board of Trustees and to Lewis Barber who has joined as Development Officer and to Glesni Thomas who has joined as social media Officer. Over the year we've seen great numbers attending our activities for adults, children and young people and it's great to see the Menter working with local businesses to promote the Welsh language in the community. It has also been a pleasure to receive an invitation to visit the team and to help develop the vision for the future. I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Sioned, Jo, Lewis and Glesni, all the support staff and all who give their free time to volunteer and ensure that the Welsh language is part of the everyday life of our communities in Blaenau Gwent, Torfaen and Monmouth." Gareth Watkins

c / Achievements and Performance

CORE STAFF

4 core positions are funded by the Welsh Government's 'Support and Promote the Welsh Language' grant.

The grant is responsible for the full funding of our Chief Officer and Development Officers and a significant contribution towards the salary of another Officer we have not yet appointed.

During 2022/2023 10 casual staff were employed in our care clubs at Ysgol Bryn Onnen and Ysgol Gymraeg y Abergavenny. These jobs are funded by club fees.

We organised 363 activities over the year with 856 registering for our events which give people the opportunity to use the language locally. These events are open and manage to draw people of diverse ages and linguistic backgrounds. £21,170.69 was received from Summer of Fun funds to fund family activities in Blaenau Gwent, Torfaen and Monmouth.

Working alongside Torfaen play

In collaboration with Torfaen Play, 160 primary school children were registered for 20 sessions over 4 weeks during August with the aim of providing an opportunity to use Welsh outside of class in a convenient atmosphere.

“A massive thank you to Menter Iaith BGTM for providing this service, I would advise any parent worried about their children going a long time without

using their Welsh such as in the holidays or during the lock down to get in contact with Menter for support”

Outdoor Activities

The Menter has continued to run weekly walking clubs in the three counties based on consumer requirements. Attendees were expected to register for the events.

At the end of January all of the Mentrau were invited to the Mentrau celebration Night in Cardiff. This evening was to celebrate all the good work the Mentrau are carrying out and also to reward some for its efforts. We reached the final 3 in the New Speakers category with our Pontypool Welsh chat group and the development of it since Covid. We're proud to announce that we went on to win that award. The award is a privilege for us as a menter and we wouldn't have been able to win this award had it not been for the support we receive from those new speakers and the fantastic work the Development officers do.

Ti a Fi Monmouth re-establishment project

In February 2022 – our Monmouth Field Officer worked intensively with a group of parents to reestablish the Ti a Fi group at Rockfield community hall mainly to inform them of the new school which will be opening soon. We hope within time we will be able to recruit volunteers and empower

6

the parents to lead the sessions themselves. We were able to draw 20 parents with one of them playing a progressive roll in leading the sessions each week with the help of our officer.

Collaboration with the Welsh Language Societies

Throughout the year our Development Officers have been working with the Welsh language associations to arrange a schedule of activities for the year. We have tried to organise an event for each month ranging from walks to tours such as the Winter Fair.

Enterprise Language Forum

Regular meetings of our Language Forum were arranged and our Welsh partners were invited alongside local schools, local authority officers, Learn Welsh Gwent and local health board officials. Information was shared about what financial support was available to organisations and opportunities for collaboration were discussed.

Supporting children and young people.

Gwynllyw Rock Club:

Ysgol Gwynllyw Year 7-10 children were provided with the opportunity to use the language socially. The activities of the club were based on the requirements of the young people and the young people lead.

During September 2022 our Monmouth administrative and field officer supported 2 schools, one Welsh primary school and one English High School with Art projects. The two paintings are now hung on the walls of the schools. These projects encouraged children and young people to speak more Welsh and also raised awareness of the Welsh language within English school.

6 cwis dim clem Quiz sessions were held for 120 children (quiz for year pupils 6) over Microsoft Teams to promote Welshness outside of class. The quiz is an opportunity for the children to use the language in a convenient atmosphere and there was an opportunity to teach the children about Welsh history, culture and traditions.

Clubs have been set up on local primary school sites to provide opportunity for children to use the language socially and increase the confidence and fluency of young speakers

Number of attendees: Panteg Drama Club – 20 Ysgol y Ffin lego clubs - 8 Cwmbran lego club - 15 Bryn onnen Lego Club - 8

3 online chat sessions were organised in the evening with 10 young people attending. We organised a gig at Ysgol Gyfun Gwynllyw with Mei Gwynedd where the whole school had a chance to hear him and join in on a few well-known songs.

Youth Forum

Our Youth Forums aim is to ensure opportunities for pupils to use Welsh in a number of different contexts, and those oppertunities are outside the classroom which increases their use of Welsh in general and also in different places. They meet once a term to organise convenient events for young people.

mass activities were held which gave families the chance to mix in Welsh, hear Welsh and discuss language transfer within a family.

They shared information about learning opportunities as adults and opportunities for their children to use Welsh socially.

These activities were attended by 96 people.

The Menter organised two successful Festivals in Torfaen and Monmouthshire. Torfhwyl was organised online last year but this is the first time it has been held in person. Many local partners came to support the festival with its stalls and performances were given by Martin Geraint and local folk band Paid Gofyn. Over 90 people attended the event.

In February Miri Monmouth was organised for the first time over at County Hall, Monmouth. The main aim of this festival was to raise awareness of the new Welsh language school which will be established soon. Many families came to the festival to receive information and enjoy the entertainment. Over 100 people attended the event.

Our Carco Clubs at Ysgol Y Fenni and Ysgol Bryn Onnen have been successful again although there have been quite a few changes in staffing this year. Children enjoy a variety of activities such as board games, sports and crafts all through the medium of Welsh.

28 children were registered on Y Fenni Carco Clwb Carco and 15 children were enrolled on Bryn Onnen Clwb Carco books. A good relationship has been established with the parents as a result of the work that the admin and development officer does.
