2020 Marches On!

1st March is St. David’s Day – Dydd Gwyl Dewi Sant.

This is the feast day of Saint David, the patron saint of Wales, and the date of his death in 589 AD. The feast has been regularly celebrated since the canonisation of David in the 12th century. Traditionally, the Welsh costume is worn along with either leeks or daffodils.

Celebrating All Things Welsh

It’s the time of year when we celebrate all things Welsh and there’s certainly a lot to rejoice! We have a pretty amazing flag with a big red dragon on it. The humble daffodil is our national flower. And then we have simple traditions, such as the giving of love spoons, and most importantly, singing hymns and arias whilst watching the rugby.
