Irish Language Development

Limavady Borough Council, in conjunction with Magherafelt District Council has recently appointed Déaglán Ó Doibhlin as Irish Language Development Officer for the two boroughs.

This is a new project which runs to June 2010, and is part-funded by both Councils and Foras na Gaeilge. It will help to raise awareness of and participation in our shared linguistic heritage across the whole community. It will also foster new working relationships with the Irish Language community, improving services and promoting the language.

Déaglán is keen to hear from local people, language organisations and community groups, with their views on how Limavady Borough Council can support the use of Irish in the area.

For further information, contact Déaglán on 028 777 60306, or deaglan.odoibhlin@limavady.gov.uk

Forbairt na Gaeilge

Tá Comhairle Bhuirg Léim an Mhadaidh i dteannta Comhairle Ceantair Mhachaire Fíolta tar éis Déaglán Ó Doibhlin a cheapadh mar Oifigeach Forbartha Gaeilge don dá cheantar.

Tionscadál nua é seo atá á mhaoiniú ag an dá chomhairle agus ag Foras na Gaeilge. Cuideoidh sé le feasacht agus rannpháirtíocht i leith ár dteanga dúchais a spreagadh sa chontae agus tógfaidh sé droichead idir pobal labhartha na Gaeilge agus na Comhairlí, ag cur lena seirbhísí agus ag ardú íomha na Gaeilge.

Ba mhaith le Déaglán cloisteáil ó dhaoine áitiúla, eagraíochta teanga agus pobail srl a bhfuil tuairimí acu i dtaobh forbairt na Gaeilge sa cheantar agus tá teacht air ag Oifigí na Comhairle.
