Y Dinesydd (Welsh for The Citizen) is a monthly local Welsh-language newspaper (normally called a papur bro ) for Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan, Wales, established in April 1973. [1] It was the first local Welsh language newspaper, and was the brainchild of Dr. Meredydd Evans. [1]

The paper is run by a committee of volunteers who are elected annually at an annual general meeting. The paper was free until 2013, when they began to charge a fee. It is available in print and digitally.

It contains news about organisations in Cardiff and the Vale and includes paid advertisements. These organisations include: Cricc, Côrdydd, Menter Caerdydd, Eglwys Minny Street, Eglwys y Crwys, Eglwys Annibynnol Ebeneser, Eglwys Efengylaidd Gymraeg Caerdydd, Ysgol Gyfun Gymraeg Glantaf, Ysgol Gyfun Plasmawr, Ysgol Melin Gruffydd, Aelwyd CF1 and many more. It also includes more general articles, including a regular column on local history, a poetry competition and a crossword puzzle.

Y Dinesydd celebrated its 50th birthday in April 2023. [1] [2]
