No support for Irish language volunteers

I AM always watching your letters page for comments on the rise and fall of the Irish language movement, and I laud Daithí Kimber’s efforts at promoting the cúpla focal (July 30).

His group’s ‘One-stop Shop na Gaeilge’ in Waterford is a great way to entice visitors and locals to use the native tongue.

What a disappointment for them to be halted in their endeavours to create a friendly, inviting atmosphere in which Irish could be used both by learners and more fluent speakers.
