Daeth cyhoeddiad y Gweinidog i nodi Diwrnod Hawliau Gofalwyr \- gan gadarnhau unwaith yn rhagor ymrwymiad Llywodraeth Cymru i gefnogi'r 370,000 o bobl yng Nghymru sydd â chyfrifoldeb gofal. Gofalwyr sy'n darparu 96% o'r gofal mewn cymunedau ar draws Cymru, ac maen nhw'n cyfrannu dros £8\.1bn i economi Cymru bob blwyddyn.   
  
Bydd y £15m ychwanegol a gyhoeddwyd heddiw yn helpu i sicrhau rhagor o gydweithio rhwng awdurdodau lleol a byrddau iechyd er mwyn i oedolion ag anghenion gofal gael cymorth yn eu cartrefi, gan osgoi derbyniadau diangen i'r ysbyty neu sicrhau bod modd iddynt ddychwelyd cyn gynted â phosibl. Bydd hyn yn helpu i leihau achosion o oedi wrth drosglwyddo gofal, gan ryddhau adnoddau'r ysbyty.  
  
I ofalwyr, fydd yn helpu i gyflawni'r tair Blaenoriaeth Genedlaethol i Ofalwyr \- helpu i fyw yn ogystal â gofalu; adnabod a chydnabod gofalwyr; a darparu gwybodaeth, cyngor a chymorth.   
  
Ar hyn o bryd, mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn edrych ar ffyrdd o wella ansawdd a phriodoldeb y gefnogaeth sy'n cael ei chynnig i ofalwyr, gan gynnwys y math o wasanaeth seibiant neu gymorth o fath arall sydd ar gael a pha mor aml mae'n cael ei gynnig. Bydd y cyllid ychwanegol yn galluogi sefydliadau cyhoeddus a thrydydd sector i symud ymlaen â'r agenda hwn.  
  
Bydd y cyllid yn cael ei ddyrannu i fyrddau partneriaeth rhanbarthol.  
  
Dywedodd y Gweinidog Plant, Pobl Hŷn a Gofal Cymdeithasol, Huw Irranca\-Davies:   



> "Rwy'n falch iawn o fedru cyhoeddi £15m o fuddsoddiad ychwanegol mewn gwasanaethau ataliol sy'n cefnogi oedolion ag anghenion gofal. Bydd y buddsoddiad hwn o gymorth i ddatblygu gwasanaethau sy'n helpu oedolion sydd angen cymorth i barhau i fyw'n annibynnol yn eu cartrefi eu hunain, a fydd o ganlyniad yn helpu i gadw pobl allan o'r ysbyty. 
> 
> "I nodi Diwrnod Hawliau Gofalwyr, rwy’ hefyd am ddiolch o galon i'r nifer enfawr o ofalwyr di\-dâl sydd gennym ar draws Cymru. Mae eu cyfraniad hael yn gwneud gwahaniaeth amhrisiadwy i'r rhai sy'n derbyn gofal, eu teuluoedd a'r gymuned ehangach.
> 
> "Er mwyn eu helpu, rwy'n falch o gadarnhau y byddwn ni'n buddsoddi rhan o'r £15m i wella gwasanaethau i ofalwyr \- yn arbennig gwasanaethau seibiant fel bod modd i ofalwyr gael toriad, i’w helpu fel gofalwyr ac yn eu bywydau tu hwnt i ofalu."

Mae'r cyllid hwn yn rhan o £30m ychwanegol a ddyrannwyd i fyrddau partneriaeth rhanbarthol er mwyn helpu i gadarnhau ffyrdd integredig o weithio. Cyhoeddwyd y cyllid yng Nghyllideb Ddrafft 2019\-20 gan Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Gyllid, Mark Drakeford.   
  
Mae Cymru Iachach: Ein Cynllun Iechyd a Gofal Cymdeithasol yn dweud yn glir mai byrddau partneriaeth rhanbarthol fydd yn gyfrifol am ddatblygu modelau newydd o iechyd a gofal cymdeithasol di\-dor.  
  
Mae'r cyllid hwn yn ychwanegol at y £100m o gyllid Trawsnewid dros ddwy flynedd sydd ar gael i helpu i gyflwyno modelau newydd o ofal i gyflawni amcanion y cynllun.

The Minister made the announcement to mark Carers Rights Day \- reaffirming the Welsh Government’s commitment to supporting the 370,000 people in Wales who have a caring responsibility. Carers provide 96% of the care in the communities across Wales, contributing more than £8\.1bn to the Welsh economy every year.   
  
The additional £15m funding announced today will help increase joint working between local authorities and health boards to support adults with care needs in their homes, avoiding unnecessary hospital admissions, or ensuring they can return as soon as possible after hospital admission. This will help to reduce delayed transfers of care, freeing up hospital resources.  
  
For carers, it will bolster progress on delivering the three National Priorities for Carers \- supporting life alongside caring; identifying and recognising carers; and providing information, advice and support.   
  
The Welsh Government is currently investigating ways to improve the quality and appropriateness of respite support for carers, including the types and frequency of respite and other support across Wales. Additional funding will enable public and third sector organisations to make progress on this agenda.  
  
The funding will be allocated to regional partnership boards.  
  
Minister for Children, Older People and Social Care, Huw Irranca\-Davies said:  



> “I’m pleased to be able to announce an additional £15m investment in preventative services that support adults with care needs. In particular, this investment will help develop services that support adults who need support to remain independent in their own homes, which will help keep people out of hospital. 
> 
> “To mark Carers Rights Day, I also want to say thank you to the huge number of unpaid carers across Wales. Their selfless contribution makes an incredibly invaluable difference to those they care for, their families, and the wider community.
> 
> “To support them, I’m pleased to confirm that we’ll be investing part of the £15m to improve support for carers – in particular, respite services, so that carers are able to take a break, supporting them as carers and in their life alongside caring.”

The funding is part of an additional £30m which has been allocated to Regional Partnership Boards to help strengthen integrated working, announced in the Draft Budget 2019\-20 by the Cabinet Secretary for Finance, Mark Drakeford.  
  
A Healthier Wales: Our Plan for Health and Social Care makes clear that regional partnership boards will be the bodies responsible for developing new models of seamless health and social care.  
  
This funding is in addition to the £100m Transformation funding over two years, which has been made available to support the introduction of new models of care to deliver the objectives of the plan.
