  • Welsh Horizons Across 50 Years Edited by John Osmond and Peter Finch Photography: John Briggs
    25 25 Vision Welsh horizons across 50 years Edited by John Osmond and Peter Finch Photography: John Briggs 25 25 Vision Welsh horizons across 50 years Edited by John Osmond and Peter Finch Photography: John Briggs The Institute of Welsh Affairs exists to promote quality research and informed debate affecting the cultural, social, political and economic well being of Wales. The IWA is an independent organisation owing no allegiance to any political or economic interest group. Our only interest is in seeing Wales flourish as a country in which to work and live. We are funded by a range of organisations and individuals, including the Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust, the Esmée Fairbairn Foundation, and the Waterloo Foundation. For more information about the Institute, its publications, and how to join, either as an individual or corporate supporter, contact: IWA - Institute of Welsh Affairs, 4 Cathedral Road, Cardiff CF11 9LJ T: 029 2066 0820 F: 029 2023 3741 E: [email protected] www.iwa.org.uk www.clickonwales.org Inspired by the bardd teulu (household poet) tradition of medieval and Renaissance Wales, the H’mm Foundation is seeking to bridge the gap between poets and people by bringing modern poetry more into the public domain and particularly to the workplace. The H’mm Foundation is named after H’m, a volume of poetry by R.S. Thomas, and because the musing sound ‘H’mm’ is an internationally familiar ‘expression’, crossing all linguistic frontiers. This literary venture has already secured the support of well-known poets and writers, including Gillian Clarke, National Poet for Wales, Jon Gower, Menna Elfyn, Nigel Jenkins, Peter Finch and Gwyneth Lewis.

Introduction and Background 1.1 This report on publishing children’s books in Welsh was commissioned by the Welsh Books Council’s Publishing Grants Panel (Welsh Language). It was agreed that the work of researching and writing the report should be conducted between August and October 2013. 1.2 The Panel was aware that book sales in general have suffered during the last four or five years, mainly due to the economic situation. In the case of children's books, sales of books for young children are still very good, but the market for older children’s books, and original books in particular, is not as robust. Panel members were also keen to see where children's books supported by the Publishing Grant fit into the wider provision available for children, including electronic material.

  • S4C Review of Statement of Programme Policy 2008
    S4C Review of Statement of Programme Policy 2008 Introduction This is the S4C Authority’s Review of the performance of S4C’s public services against the Statement of Programme Policy 2008. This Review was prepared in accordance with the requirements outlined in paragraph 4(1) (b) of Annex 2 of the Communications Act 2003. The Review is based on the objectives set out in the Statement of Programme Policy 2008. The Statement noted that S4C would continue to develop and invest in the provision for children in line with the results of the S4C Authority Consultation into services for children. This aim was fulfilled. 2008 was a historic year for S4C’s Programmes and Content Service with the launch of Cyw , the new service for young children. Nursery provision was extended from one hour to six and a half hours per day, five days a week, and a number of brand new series and characters were introduced to the screen. As mentioned in the Statement of Programme Policy, 2008 was designated a ‘Green Year’ by S4C and there were several highlights to this special season of programming, including Natur Cymru , Yr Afon and Byw yn Ardd. There was an undertaking to use suitable distribution platforms with an emphasis on broadband to increase the value and usage of S4C content. In September, S4/Clic was launched – the Channel’s online viewing service developed to improve the view-again service first introduced in 2006. As a result, there was a year-on-year increase of 182% in the online viewing sessions during 2008, in comparison with 2007.
