Mudiad Meithrin to get 拢2m for one million Welsh speaker goal
- Published
The goal of reaching one million Welsh speakers will be helped by an extra 拢2m over the next two years.
In 2016, First Minister Carwyn Jones announced plans to almost double the figure from 562,000 by 2050.
The extra cash will go to Mudiad Meithrin - a charity which gives early years, including nursery, Welsh-language education.
It will now receive an extra 拢1m in each of the next two years on top of its 拢2m Welsh Government funding.
The money will help it set up new provisions in areas where there is a lack of opportunity to use the language.
