Yn ddiweddar, mae grŵp bach o bentrefwyr yn Llansadwrn, wedi neud cais am grant Perthyn – grant ai ariennir gan Lywodraeth Cymru, sydd yn darparu cefnogaeth cyfnod cynnar lleol i gymunedau Cymreig yng ngogledd a gorllewin Cymru sydd â diddordeb mewn datblygu syniadau menter gymdeithasol.
Mae’r grŵp wedi bod yn llwyddiannus, ac wedi derbyn grant i wneud gwaith ymchwil dwys yn ardal Llansadwrn a’i chyffiniau, yn gofyn cwestiynau fydd yn crynhoi gweledigaeth pentrefwyr lleol am faterion iaith, diwylliant, amgylchedd, ynni, trafnidiaeth ac asedau lleol – yr holl bethau sydd yn gwneud yr ardal yn ddymunol, neu’n annymunol i fyw ynddi. Mi fydd y prosiect hefyd yn gofyn am syniadau a gweledigaethau pobol leol am ba fath o bethau hoffent ei weld yn cael ei ddatblygu yn yr ardal, dan arweiniad a pherchnogaeth menter gymdeithasol a chymunedol. Bydd y wybodaeth yma yn caniatáu i’r pentref amlygu prosiectau posib er budd cynaliadwyedd ein hardal.
Mae’r Gymraeg yn ganolog i delerau’r grant, ac felly i’r gwaith ymchwil yma hefyd. Bydd y grant hefyd yn gallu ariannu’r gymuned i edrych ar ddatblygu endid cymunedol newydd all ddatblygu rhai o’r syniadau bydd yn deillio o’r gwaith ymchwil a’r ymgynghoriad cymunedol.
Os ydych chi yn byw a bod yn ardal Llansadwrn a’i chyffiniau – rydym am glywed eich profiadau a theimladau chi am fyw yn yr ardal hon a syniadau yr allwn, o bosib, ei ddatblygu yn yr ardal! Mi fydd yna amrywiaeth o ffyrdd y gallwch chi gymryd rhan ac ymroi syniadau i’r ymchwil hon, gan gynnwys diwrnod agored cymunedol ar y 14eg o Fawrth yn Narllenfa Llansadwrn, rhwng 12 a 4 o’r gloch; gyda bwyd, diod a gweithgareddau.
Croeso i unrhywun sydd â diddordeb, eisiau ymuno â’r grwp llywio neu eisiau helpu neu gynnig unrhyw awgrymiadau neu syniadau, i gysylltu â Sioned Haf trwy e-bost (sionedhaf@hotmail.com) neu dros y ffôn: 07529901523
Recently, a small group of villagers in Llansadwrn, have applied for a Perthyn grant funded by the Welsh Government, which provides early-stage support to Welsh communities in north and west Wales who are interested in developing social enterprise ideas.
The group has been successful, and has received a grant to carry out intensive research work in the Llansadwrn area and its surroundings, asking questions that will summarise the vision of local villagers about issues around language, heritage, culture, environment, energy, transport, housing and local assets – all the things that make the area desirable, or undesirable to live in. The project will also ask for the ideas and visions of local people about what kind of things they would like to see developed in the area, under the leadership and ownership of a social or community enterprise. This information will allow the village to identify possible projects that could be taken forwards, for the benefit of the sustainability of our community.
Exploring the long-term sustainability and survival of the Welsh language is central to the terms of the grant, and therefore to this research as well. The grant will also be able to fund the community to look at developing a new community entity which can develop some of the ideas that will arise from the research and community consultation.
If you live or are involved with life in the village and surrounding areas – we want to hear about your experiences and feelings about living in this community and ideas that could, potentially be developed in this area! There will be a variety of ways for you to participate and contribute ideas to this research, including an open day event on the 14th of March, from 12-4pm at the Reading Rooms (with food, drinks and activities to coincide).
A warm welcome to anyone who is interested in this development, or who wants to join the steering group or wants to help or offer any suggestions or ideas, to contact Sioned Haf by email (sionedhaf@hotmail.com) or by phone: 07529901523
