Dúirt Cathaoirleach Chomhairle Ceantair an Iúir, Mhúrn agus an Dúin, An Comhairleoir Cathy Mhásún, “Tá pobal áitiúil na Gaeilge ag déaláil le cuid mhaith dúshlán le cúpla bliain anuas: mar gheall ar dhianghlasáil agus shrianta COVID-19 cuireadh go leor imeachtaí Gaeilge, ranganna, dianchúrsaí Gaeilge agus cúrsaí Samhraidh sa Ghaeltacht ar ceal. Tá lúchair orm go bhfuil Comhairle Ceantair an Iúir, Mhúrn agus an Dúin in ann tacaíocht a chur ar fáil trí Scéim Sparánachta na Gaeilge agus tá súil againn go gcuideofaidh an Scéim leis an phobal treisiu agus neartú de réir a chéile. Trí Scéim Sparánachta na Gaeilge, gheobhaidh cuid mhaith teaghlach sa cheantar tacaíocht sa dóigh is go mbeidh daoine óga sa chlann in ann sult as cuimse agus tairbhe ar leith a bhaint as dul chuig na coláistí samhraidh sa Ghaeltacht. Beidh tacaíocht ar fáil fosta do dhaoine ag aoiseanna éagsúla dul ar ais chuig ranganna rialta, rud atá iontach tábhachtach mar mhodh sóisialta chomh maith le foghlamtha do chuid mhaith daoine sa cheantar seo.”

Newry, Mourne and Down District Council will assist residents in the district with a bursary to help with the costs of Irish language courses through the Irish Language Bursary Scheme 2022-2023. The scheme will open for applications from 11 March 2022, application forms will be available online at www.newrymournedown.org/gaeilge.

Newry, Mourne and Down District Council Chairperson, Councillor Cathy Mason said, “The Irish language community has faced many challenges over the past couple of years, including cancellation of Irish Language events, classes, intensive language courses and Gaeltacht summer courses due to lockdowns and COVID-19 restrictions. I am delighted that Newry, Mourne and Down District Council is in a position to offer financial support through our Irish Language Bursary Scheme which we hope will help enable the community to recover. Through the Bursary Scheme, families of some of our young people will be given the support to help them enjoy the unique experience of attending summer colleges in the Gaeltacht, and learners right across the age demographic will be supported and therefore encouraged to attend regular classes again which is a key social outlet for many in our district.”
