Wales’ new Health Minister, Baroness Eluned Morgan was the government minister in charge of the Welsh language from 2017 to 2021. A vicar's daughter born in a deprived area of Cardiff, and the only Welsh speaking family on the estate at the time. In an interview recorded before the election, she talks to Nia about how her mother started the local Cylch Meithrin - a Welsh language playgroup, and how she believes Cylch Meithrin is so important in getting to a million Welsh speakers by 2050. Bilingualism expert, Dr Sian Wyn Siencyn listens in and explains how speaking other languages improves a child's confidence and their social skills.
