This law aims to improve the social, cultural, environmental and economic well-being of Wales. The law requires public bodies in Wales to think about the long-term impact of their decisions, to work better with people and communities, and to prevent problems like poverty, ill-health or climate change.

Wales has two official languages – English and Welsh.

Although more people in Wales speak English, the Welsh language is a very important part of Welsh culture and identity. Learning the Welsh language can be a very useful skill in the workplace and in your local community. Public bodies, businesses and charities all need Welsh language speakers to help them to communicate in both official language of Wales.

If you wanted to say ‘Welcome to Wales’ to someone in Welsh, you would say ‘Croeso I Gymru’. To say ‘thank you’ you would say ‘Diolch’.

If you can find opportunities to learn the Welsh language here.
