Swansea teaches lingo to foreign youngsters



Young newcomers to Swansea from as far afield as Eritrea and Iraq are
being helped to learn English at a technology hub in the city centre.
Dozens of young people are making the most of podcasts and MP3
equipment at Info-Nation, Swansea's information, support and advice
centre for young people, as part of their quest to master the local
language. The scheme was able to expand into the city centre after
DACE received funding from the European Social Fund.
