The support package will allocate £5\.5 million to local authorities to provide targeted support to unpaid carers; £1\.25m for the Carers Support Fund \- last year, this fund successfully helped almost 6500 unpaid carers to cope with the financial impact of COVID\-19; £20,000 to fund online mental wellbeing support sessions; and £230,000 for the Family Fund to support over 600 further low\-income families with seriously ill or disabled children.

* £32,000 to run a pilot scheme for parent carers to choose practical support which meets their needs in Swansea.


The Deputy Minister for Social Services said:



> The physical and emotional impact of caring can be overwhelming. We share concerns that many are at breaking point due to the additional pressures put upon them from the pandemic. Thousands of unpaid carers have been supported since the start of the pandemic but it its vital we continue to help unpaid carers cope with the emotional and financial impact of COVID\-19\.
> 
> 
> The funding announced today shows how much we appreciate the army of unpaid carers in Wales who have gone above and beyond to care for family or friends and our commitment to support carers to have a life beyond their caring role.
> 
> 
> Unpaid carers play a vital role in our society, helping reduce pressures on the health service by ensuring people can return from and stay out of hospital. Their extraordinary work and contribution to social care is part of a £42m package to support the NHS winter plan.


An unpaid carer attending a dementia support group in Gwynedd commented:



> The Dementia Carers Group has provided me with companionship, moral support when feeling a bit lost whilst looking after my husband who has mixed dementia. I have made friends through the meetings, have improved my qualities as a carer, with practical advice received, not only from other carers, but the amazing guest speakers who have guided us all with their knowledgeable advice on all practical matters relevant to being a carer. Tuesday mornings are a lot less lonely since I joined the group.

Dywedodd y Dirprwy Weinidog Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol:



> Gall effaith corfforol ac emosiynol gofalu fod yn llethol. Rydym yn rhannu’r pryderon bod rhai wedi cyrraedd pen eu tennyn oherwydd y pwysau ychwanegol arnynt o ganlyniad i’r pandemig. Mae miloedd o ofalwyr di\-dâl wedi cael eu cefnogi ers dechrau’r pandemig ond mae’n hanfodol ein bod yn parhau i helpu gofalwyr di\-dâl i ymdopi ag effaith emosiynol ac ariannol COVID\-19\.

> Mae’r cyllid a gyhoeddwyd heddiw yn dangos cymaint yw ein gwerthfawrogiad i’r fyddin o ofalwyr di\-dâl yng Nghymru sydd wedi mynd yr ail filltir i ofalu am eu ffrindiau a’u teulu. Rydym yn ymrwymo i gynorthwyo gofalwyr i fyw eu bywyd yn ogystal â gofalu.
>

> Mae gofalwyr di\-dâl yn chwarae rhan hanfodol yn ein cymdeithas, gan helpu i leihau’r pwysau ar y gwasanaeth iechyd drwy sicrhau y gall pobl ddod adref o’r ysbyty a pheidio â dychwelyd yno. Mae eu gwaith eithriadol a’u cyfraniad i ofal cymdeithasol yn rhan o becyn gwerth £42m i gefnogi cynllun y gaeaf ar gyfer y GIG.


Dywedodd gofalwr di\-dâl sy’n mynd i grŵp cymorth dementia yng Ngwynedd:



> Mae’r Grŵp Gofalwyr Dementia wedi rhoi cyfeillgarwch i mi, a chymorth pan oeddwn i’n teimlo ar goll wrth ofalu am fy ngŵr sydd â dementia cymysg. Rwyf wedi gwneud ffrindiau drwy’r cyfarfodydd, wedi gwella fy rhinweddau fel gofalwr, ac wedi cael cyngor ymarferol gan y gofalwyr eraill a’r siaradwyr gwadd sydd wedi ein harwain gyda’u cyngor doeth ar bob math o faterion ymarferol sy’n berthnasol i fod yn ofalwr. Mae boreau dydd Mawrth yn llawer llai unig ers i mi ymuno â’r grŵp.
