Awyr Agored – Welsh Language project for training within the outdoor sector
About Awyr Agored
This training programme, run by Menter Iaith Cymru, is available to Welsh speakers wishing to gain the necessary qualifications to work as instructors within outdoor activity sector.
The scheme addresses the need for Welsh speakers within the outdoor activity industry in Conwy, and offers training and support to Welsh-speaking individuals or groups across all areas of the industry, including: mountaineering, climbing, kayaking, rafting, surfing, mountain biking and sailing.
The potential of Conwy County as an outdoor activities area is already being realised at a tourism level. By satisfying the need for Welsh speaking instructors, this scheme aims to tap into a vast local market and inspire the resident population to really discover their own surroundings. The scheme will help to encourage a sustainable local economy, and will enable people to work within their own communities.
