Dundee's Gaelic / Gàidhlig Dhùn Dè (360G-BNG-2324_3043)

Dundee’s Gaelic/Gàidhlig Dhùn Dè will be a series of classes and resources which will be delivered to grow the use and understanding of Gaelic in Dundee. The project aims not only to deliver Gaelic language classes and events to increase the use of Gaelic, but to set that in the context of why Gaelic is important to Dundee and Dundonians and that Gaelic has been an integral part of our city’s culture from the beginning of Gaelic in Scotland up until modern times.The main outputs and outcomes of the project will be to:· Deliver the SpeakGaelic programme to the public in Dundee, targeting people living in areas of multiple-deprivation who would otherwise not be able to afford to attend pay classes.· Deliver Gaelic awareness raising sessions to Dundee City Council staff and Elected Members, to enhance the status and profile of Gaelic within the local authority.· Create a booklet and webpage on Gaelic in Dundee, for both Dundee residents and visitors to the city; including place name information, history of Gaelic migration and cultural input to the city, and how people can interact with Gaelic in Dundee today.· Deliver Guided Walks around Dundee highlighting all of the above.
