Gaelic Conversation

A bheil thu ag ionnsachadh na Gàidhlig? No a bheil thu ag iarraidh cothrom ga cleachdadh? Uill, nach tig thu do ar Cearcall Còmhraidh!

We meet on the first Monday of every month from 6.30 – 7.30pm (Scottish time!) on Zoom. Each month we invite a guest speaker to chat on a given subject before taking questions and general chat. It is the perfect place to practice your Gaelic with likeminded learners in a safe environment. Beginners & listeners are welcome and the sessions are completely free!
