English: There are twin celebrations going on in Denbigh this week, with the Clwyd Welsh language centre celebrating 30 years of providing Welsh-medium education for adults. It's also 10 years since the opening of the unique Wireless in Wales museum, which is also located in the same building in Denbigh town centre. The main driver for the establishment of the two bodies was the late David Jones, the former mayor of Denbigh, a Welsh learner, a staunch internationalist, and a man who had a great interest in the history of radios, and the link between the development of radios, the survival of the Welsh language, and the concept of Wales as a nation. David was instrumental in the campaign to open Wales's first county Welsh language centre in Denbigh, and his personal collection of old radios is the centrepiece of the fascinating museum located in the Clwyd Welsh language centre in the town. He was a loyal member of Plaid Cymru, and held internationalist beliefs. He helped set up Cymru Cuba, the Cuba-Wales society, and his wife, Vesi, who is from Bulgaria, is still active in the museum. The language centre has developed considerably since its inception as the first county Welsh language centre in Wales. Following the reconfiguration of Welsh for adults two years ago, Popeth Cymraeg is now responsible for all courses in Denbighshire. It also works in partnership with Coleg Cambria, which is responsible for Welsh classes in the counties of Wrexham and Flint. It is fair to say that the thousands who have benefited from these courses, and the thousands who have visited the radio museum, would not have had the opportunity without the gentle and stubborn vision of our late friend, David Jones. We are greatly indebted to someone who was a real community champion, and that's why I want us to remember him today, and wish both centres well on their special anniversary.
Welsh: Mae dathliadau dwbl yn Ninbych yr wythnos yma, gyda phenblwydd Canolfan Iaith Clwyd, wedi 30 mlynedd o ddarparu addysg Gymraeg i oedolion. Ac mae hi hefyd yn 10 mlynedd ers agor amgueddfa gwbl unigryw Gwefr heb Wifrau - Wireless in Wales - sydd hefyd wedi ei lleoli yn yr un adeilad, yng nghanol y dref yn Ninbych. Y prif symbylydd dros sefydlu'r ddau gorff oedd y diweddar David Jones, cyn-faer Dinbych, dysgwr Cymraeg, rhyng-genedlaetholwr pybyr, a gŵr a oedd â diddordeb mawr mewn hanes radios, a'r cysylltiad rhwng datblygiad radios a goroesiad yr iaith Gymraeg, a'r cysyniad o Gymru fel cenedl. Bu David yn allweddol yn yr ymgyrch i agor canolfan iaith sirol gyntaf Cymru yn Ninbych, a'i gasgliad personol ef o hen radios yw craidd yr amgueddfa hynod ddiddorol a leolir yng Nghanolfan Iaith Clwyd yn y dref. Roedd e'n aelod o Blaid Cymru, ac yn rhyngwladol ei ddaliadau. Mi helpodd e sefydlu cymdeithas Cymru Cuba, ac mae Vesi, ei wraig, sy'n hannu o Fwlgaria, yn dal i fod yn weithgar gyda'r amgueddfa. Mae'r ganolfan iaith, wrth gwrs, wedi datblygu gryn dipyn ers ei sefydlu yn ganolfan iaith sirol gyntaf Cymru. Yn dilyn ad-drefnu Cymraeg i oedolion ddwy flynedd yn ôl, mae Popeth Cymraeg bellach yn gyfrifol am gyrsiau sir Ddinbych i gyd. Mae hefyd yn gweithio mewn partneriaeth â Choleg Cambria, sy'n gyfrifol am ddosbarthiadau Cymraeg yn siroedd Wrecsam a'r Fflint. Mae'n deg dweud na fyddai'r miloedd sydd wedi elwa o'r cyrsiau yma, na'r miloedd sydd wedi ymweld â'r amgueddfa radios, wedi cael y cyfle heb weledigaeth addfwyn o styfnig ein cyfaill diweddar, David Jones. Mae'n dyled ni'n fawr i rywun a oedd yn bencampwr cymunedol go iawn, a dyna pam fy mod i am inni gofio heddiw a dymuno, wrth gwrs, yn dda i'r ddwy ganolfan ar eu penblwyddi arbennig.
