VISITORS and politicians welcomed the Star’s special Welsh-language Eisteddfod edition at the weekend and the paper’s stall at Europe’s largest cultural festival.

Your paper’s presence on the Maes was warmly received as the National Eisteddfod of Wales opened its doors in Pontypridd.

Hundreds of people visited the paper’s stall and cash was raised for the Fighting Fund on the opening day, along with healthy sales of books and Morning Star merchandise.
