Eleanor attends Mudiad Ysgolion Meithrin AGM

Eleanor Burnham, Liberal Democrat spokesperson for Children and Young People and Welsh Language in the National Assembly, recently attended the Annual General Meeting of Mudiad Ysgolion Meithrin (MYM), the Welsh-medium Early Years Care and Education specialists.

The Ceredigion based organisation aims to give every pre-school child in Wales the opportunity to benefit from early years experiences through the medium of Welsh.

Following the visit Ms Burnham said: "I was delighted to meet MYM and learn more about the great work they do for young pre-school children through the Welsh language, two of my key areas of responsibility in the National Assembly.

"It is clear that through their work and support for families they are providing an excellent service for our young children."
