I mí Mheán Fómhair, tháinig Help Film chugainn le cuidiú linn an méid a dhéanann Cultúrlann Uí Chanáin speisialta a thaifeadadh. Rinne siad jab ar dóigh ag tarraingt airde ar an rud is tábhachtaí dúinn – ár bpobal foghlaimeoirí Gaeilge, ceoltóirí traidisiúnta, múinteoirí, Gaeilgeoirí, agus daoine óga atá ag caitheamh a saoil trí Ghaeilge. Amharc ar an scannán thíos. Níl aon amhras ach go bhfuil an teanga agus cultúr faoi bhláth i nDoire, agus tá muid bródúil as a bheith ag an chroílár. Tá muid ar bís go bhfuil raon mór duaiseanna le tairiscint againn dár gCrannchur Nollag, a bhfuil dearbhán don Óstán Galgorm san áireamh ar fiú £220 é! Rachaidh an t-airgead go léir a thógfar chun sochair dár gcuid oibre mar charthanas ag cothú na Gaeilge agus an chultúir Ghaelaigh san oirthuaisceart.

They did a great job of highlighting the most important thing to us – our community of Irish language learners, traditional musicians, teachers, Irish speakers, and young people living their life through the Irish language. Watch the film below. There is no doubt that the language and culture is thriving in Derry and we are proud to be at the epicentre of that. We’re excited to offer a huge range of prizes for our Christmas Raffle, including a voucher for the Galgorm worth £220! All proceeds will go to our work as a charity in fostering the Irish language and culture in The Northwest. Further information is available here: https://tinyurl.com/mwrw73rf
