Le aithrisean ann gu bheil mì-chleachdadh dhrugaichean am measg dhaoine òga air a dhol an-àirde ann am Breatainn sna beagan bhliadhnachan mu dheireadh, tha ·¡Ã²°ù±è²¹ an t-seachdain sa a' feuchainn ri coimhead ris na h-adhbharan a dh'fhaodadh a bhith air cùlaibh seo agus na ghabhas a dhèanamh mu dheidhinn.

Bidh sùil gu h-àraidh air an Eilean Sgitheanach mar eisimpleir de sgìre dhùthchail ann an Alba far a bheil dragh am measg cuid air cho furasta is a tha e drugaichean fhaighinn, agus mun obair a tha a' dol air adhart le diofar bhuidhnean chùm cuideachadh agus ionnsachadh a thoirt dhaibh timcheall air drugaichean, agus na cunnartan nan lùib.

With report of increased drug mis-use amongst young people in the UK over recent years, ·¡Ã²°ù±è²¹ this week attempts to uncover the potential reasons behind this increase and what can be done to counter it.

The programme will look particularly at the situation in Isle of Skye as an example of a rural area of Scotland with concerns amongst some at the ease with which drugs can be procured, and the work being undertaken by various agencies in order to educate and help young people regarding drug use, and the dangers involved.

Tha "Ama o Hyd" air port aighearrach a th' air a sheinn le luchd-leantainn a' bhuill-còise sa Chuimrigh - an 'Red Wall', mar as fheàrr a dh'aithnichear iad - agus a tha a-nis air an t-slighe gu Cupa na Cruinne ann an Qatar.

Tha an t-òran le sèist a tha gad thàladh agus gad shlaodadh a-steach cuide ris a' chìuil is brìgh nam facal a-nis a' toirt luchd-amhairc a' bhuill-coise còmhla - ge bith a bheil Cuimris aca neo nach eil. Roimhe bha an t-òran ga mheas mar òran a bhiodh air a sheinn le nàiseantaich a bha airson neo-eisimeileachd agus bhithear ga sheinn le daoine a bhiodh a' togail fianais 's iad air stailc neo daoine a bhiodh a' cur taic ri Plaid Cymru.

An-diùgh ge-tà, tha an t-òran air atharrachadh agus air slighe ùr air feadh na Cuimrigh agus air feadh an t-saoghail, a' toirt aire às ùr a dh'ionnsaigh a' bhuill-coise agus a' bhrosnachadh ùidh sa Chuimris agus cultur nan Cuimreach.

Chan ann gun fhiosta neo gu h-obann a tha seo air tachairt, ach air sàillibh 's ro-innleachd le Caidreachas a' Bhuill-coise sa Chuimrigh, an FAW, agus an Stiùiriche Conaltraidh aca, Ian Gwyn Hughes, aig an robh lèirsinn a tha a-nise air tighinn gu buil.

Is e Dafydd Iwan ùghdar an òrain 's bha esan roimhe na Cheann-suidhe air Plaid Cymru agus chaidh an t-òran a' sgriobhadh leis ann an 1982 aig àm nuair a bha Mairead Thatcher aig àrd a cumhachd, agus bha esan a' faireachdainn gun robh a' Chuimrigh air ìre ìosal a ruighinn.

"Yma o Hyd" is a rousing Welsh anthem that has been adapted by the Red Wall who are on their way to Qatar. The Red Wall for those who don't follow football is the sea of football fans dressed in red who support Wales.

The song, with it's rousing catchy chorus line of "still standing", has become a sign of unity for those on the terraces who speak Welsh and those who don't. In the past the song was seen as a nationalist anthem sung by those on picket-lines or language activists who want independence for Wales from the UK.

Today, the song has gone on a journey – a transition across Wales and the world bringing a renewed focus to football with a renewed interest in the Welsh language and culture.

This has not happened by accident but as a result of a well thought out strategy by the Football Association of Wales, the FAW. The Head of Public Relations at the FAW, Ian Gwyn Hughes, had a vision for the Welsh culture and language which is now being borne out in the present day – on and off the pitch.

Dafydd Iwan, the song's author, is a former President of Plaid Cymru and wrote the song when he felt Wales was at a low-point in 1982 during Prime Minister Thatcher's years and he wanted to proclaim that despite everyone and everything done to Wales – the country is "still standing" and will be independent again.
