Global Welsh Cwtch in Dublin 26/7/19
Helo o Gymru!
Apologies this has taken so long, but thought you may like to share this with your members.
The first ‘Inaugural Global Welsh Cwtch’ will be held at 37 Dawson Street in Dublin on Friday July 26th at 6.30pm.
Global Welsh is an organisation that is connecting the Welsh diaspora across the world to create a network of people who are Welsh or with connections to Wales.
Take a look at their website or Twitter; Facebook; LinkedIn or Instagram … they’re a phenomenal crowd who have already launched a hub in London and Tokyo and the hope is to launch the next in Dublin as they work towards connecting all of us Cymry across the world.
I’m flying over for what they’re referring to as ‘The Inaugural Global Welsh Cwtch’ so would be great to meet you!

Hopefully see you there.
