GM Notebooks

23/06/2026

Maybe you saw us at Tafwyl this weekend…

But if not — shwmae! 👋

I’m Gwil, and I run GM Notebooks, a small Welsh business on a mission to make learning Welsh easier, one resource at a time.

Whether you’re just starting out or already on your Welsh-learning journey, we’ve created products designed to help you use and enjoy the language every day. From our travel mugs to take your learning on the go, to our Grammar Maps and Welsh Learner Notebooks, there’s something for every learner.

But we’re not just here for Welsh learners.

We also create products for Welsh speakers and anyone who loves the Welsh language. From our notebooks and academic diaries to embroidered t-shirts, prints, gifts and more, everything is designed with a passion for Cymru and the Gymraeg at its heart.

And because it was so busy at Tafwyl that some people didn’t get a chance to visit our stall, we’re giving everyone 15% off everything on our website until Friday.

Just use the code POETH15 at checkout.

So whether you’re learning Welsh, speaking Welsh, or simply celebrating Welsh culture, now’s the perfect time to have a look around and treat yourself to something new.

Diolch for your support, and happy shopping!

I've been learning Welsh for a few years now, and if there's one thing I've learned along the way, it's that progress rarely feels as impressive when you're the one making it.

Most of the time, all you can see are the words you've forgotten, the mistakes you've made, or how far you've still got to go.

Then every now and again, something happens that reminds you to stop and look back for a moment.

This episode of Words, Wobbles and Wisdom takes me back to a very special milestone on my Welsh learning journey, passing my first Welsh language exam.

I was joined by Gwilym from GM Notebooks, and we chatted about learning Welsh, finding opportunities to use the language, and the encouragement that comes from being part of a community of learners.

Listening back now, I'm reminded that growth often happens so gradually that we hardly notice it until we pause and look behind us.

Whatever you're learning, working towards, or trusting God for at the moment, don't forget to celebrate the small victories along the way. They matter more than we sometimes realise.

Have you had a small win recently that made you stop and smile, let me know below.
