Croeso Cynnes Cymreig
So what is the ?CROESO? programme? It's a programme that combines actions and training and it's made up of three distinct components. You can take up all three- in any order- or complete just one, it's entirely your choice. If you do successfully complete all three however, you'll be able to use the distinctive, specially designed ?Croeso Cynnes Cymreig ?A Warm Welsh Welcome? logo as seen above, in your own marketing. Visit Wales will also feature it on any advertising you take out with us.
