Cornish Language - Cornish Pirates In The Community

An Vorladron Gernewek The Cornish Pirates

Cornish is the ancient celtic language of Cornwall, and today it is a thriving, living language having enjoyed a successful revival over the past century.

More people than ever are taking an interest in learning or using Cornish as a mark of cultural distinctiveness, and the Cornish Pirates are working with the Cornish Language Partnership to this end.

The Cornish Language Partnership was set up in response to Cornish being recognised under the European Charter for Regional and Minority Languages.

The Partnership works to promote Cornish and develop its use further in the community, working with schools, businesses, local authorities, individuals and organisations such as the Cornish Pirates.

Throughout this season the Cornish Pirates are incorporating Cornish words and phrases into the match day programmes and match day announcements.

There is also a competition being run in conjunction with the Cornish Language Partnership to win two hospitality tickets to the last home game of the season.
