CUMNOCK and Doon Valley residents are being asked for their views on East Ayrshire Council's draft Gaelic Language Plan (2019-2023).
The second draft plan outlines how the council will support and promote the Gaelic language and culture in areas including education, heritage and the economy.
A six-week consultation period has now been launched to gauge responses from the public and local groups and organisations.
Council Leader Douglas Reid, said: “I’m proud that we have a second draft Gaelic Language Plan developed to help the language and culture prosper and flourish once again.
“Gaelic is a fragile language and we’ve set out our goals for the next five years across a number of key themes, to embed it in everyday life and business.”
The Gaelic Language Plan consultation – which closes at midnight on November 18 – is available online at: https://www.east-ayrshire.gov.uk/CouncilAndGovernment/About-the-Council/EqualityDiversityAndCitizenship/Gaelic-language.aspx
