WELSH-speaking Wrexham residents are being reminded of their rights as part of a forthcoming event.
Friday, December 6 is Diwrnod Hyrwyddo Hawliau/Welsh Language Rights Day.
A spokesman for Wrexham Council said: "We wanted to make sure you know what your rights are when you come to use council services.
"The services you have a right to use in Welsh include writing to us, phoning us, speaking to a receptionist, interacting with us online, job applications, forms and documents and many more.
"You can find out more about your rights at the website of the Welsh Language Commissioner." (www.comisiynyddygymraeg.cymru/)
Stephen Jones, Welsh language coordinator at Wrexham Council, said “It’s important that Welsh speakers are aware of their rights and Diwrnod Hyrwyddo Hawliau is a great way to raise awareness of them.
“I would encourage all Welsh speakers and Welsh learners to use their Welsh when contacting the council.”
Anyone who has any difficulties when attempting to access Welsh language services can contact cymraeg@wrexham.gov.uk
