Children in Wales - Plant yng Nghymru

Rydym yn falch o rannu adnodd newydd a gynlluniwyd i helpu pobl ifanc i ddeall cwnsela, ei fanteision, a sut i gael mynediad at gymorth yn well. https://padlet.com/ChildreninWales/cwnsela-9a7ewep6mf8uxwzl

Crëwyd yr adnodd hwn mewn ymateb uniongyrchol i adborth gan bobl ifanc sydd â phrofiad o ofal, a ddywedodd wrthym fod angen gwirioneddol am wybodaeth gliriach am gwnsela a chymorth lles emosiynol. Mae eu lleisiau a'u profiadau wedi llunio'r cynnwys i sicrhau ei fod yn hygyrch, yn addysgiadol, ac yn berthnasol.

Mae'r adnodd hwn yn cynnwys:

• Beth yw cwnsela?
• Manteision cwnsela
• Gwahanol fathau o gwnsela
• Ble i gael mynediad at gymorth

Rydym yn gwybod y gall estyn allan am gymorth fod yn anodd, ac mae cael y wybodaeth gywir yn gam cyntaf pwysig. Drwy gyd-greu'r adnodd hwn gyda phobl ifanc sydd â phrofiad o ofal, rydym yn gobeithio gwneud sgyrsiau ynghylch iechyd meddwl a lles yn fwy agored a chefnogol.

Rydyn ni wedi llunio Palet ar gyfer pobl ifanc yng Nghymru sydd â phrofiad o ofal yn unig. Mae'n ofod oer a diogel lle gallwch chi ddod o hyd i gefnogaeth, awgrymiadau defnyddiol, a gwybodaeth am gwnsela os byddwch chi byth yn teimlo bod ei angen arnoch chi. Mae yna bethau ar reoli straen, delio â...

We’re proud to share a new resource designed to help young people better understand counselling, its benefits, and how to access support. https://padlet.com/ChildreninWales/counselling-p45cxs9d1p4hya1m

This resource was created in direct response to feedback from care experienced young people, who told us there was a real need for clearer information about counselling and emotional wellbeing support. Their voices and experiences have shaped the content to ensure it is accessible, informative, and relevant.

This resource includes:

• What is counselling?
• The benefits of counselling
• Different types of counselling
• Where to access support

We know that reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, and having the right information is an important first step. By co-creating this resource with care experienced young people, we hope to make conversations around mental health and wellbeing more open, supportive, and empowering.

We’ve put together a Padlet just for care-experienced young people in Wales. It’s a chill, safe space where you can find support, helpful tips, and info about counselling if you ever feel like you might need it. There’s stuff on managing stress, dealing with big feelings, and looking after you...

Cymru well i fabanod, plant a phobl ifanc.

Am dros 30 mlynedd, rydym wedi bod yn hyrwyddo hawliau plant ledled Cymru. Mae ein strategaeth pum mlynedd yn nodi sut y byddwn yn parhau i gynrychioli, ymhelaethu a dylanwadu, gan sicrhau bod lleisiau plant yn cael eu clywed lle mae penderfyniadau sy'n effeithio ar eu bywydau'n cael eu gwneud.

Wedi'i llunio gan leisiau pobl ifanc, aelodau a phartneriaid, mae'r strategaeth hon yn tywys ein gwaith a'n gweledigaeth gyffredin ar gyfer y dyfodol.

Dysgwch fwy:

Rydym wedi gosod nodau uchelgeisiol, wedi’u sbarduno gan werthoedd sy’n angori’r sefydliad yn gadarn yn ei rolau craidd – cynrychioli ein haelodau, mwyhau lleisiau plant a dylanwadu ar benderfyniadau
