I nodi wythnos ymwybyddiaeth gofalwyr 2018, bu'r Gweinidog yn ymweld â chanolfan i ofalwyr yn Abertawe heddiw i ddiolch i ofalwyr am eu hymrwymiad i'w hanwyliaid a'u hannog i sicrhau eu bod yn defnyddio'u hawl cyfreithiol i gael asesiad gofalwr.   
  
Dan Ddeddf Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol a Llesiant (Cymru) 2014, mae gan ofalwyr yr un hawl i gael asesiad o'u hanghenion â'r rheini maen nhw'n gofalu amdanynt. Y bwriad yw gweld a oes angen cymorth arnynt wrth ofalu, ac yna sicrhau ei fod yn cael ei ddarparu yn ôl yr angen.   
  
Gall gofalwr fod yn unrhyw un, o unrhyw oed, sy'n darparu gofal a chymorth yn ddi\-dâl i aelod o'r teulu, i gyfaill, neu i gymydog sydd angen gofal a chymorth.   
  
Amcangyfrifir bod dros 370,000 o ofalwyr yng Nghymru sy'n cyfrannu dros £8\.1bn at yr economi bob blwyddyn. Mae 96% o'r gofal sy'n cael ei ddarparu i bobl mewn cymunedau ar hyd a lled Cymru yn cael ei roi yn wirfoddol gan deulu a ffrindiau.  
  
I gefnogi'r gwaith o ddarparu hawliau ychwanegol i ofalwyr dan y Ddeddf mae Llywodraeth Cymru, mewn partneriaeth â rhanddeiliaid, wedi sefydlu tair Blaenoriaeth Genedlaethol i Ofalwyr yng Nghymru:   


* Helpu i fyw yn ogystal â gofalu;
* Adnabod a chydnabod gofalwyr;
* Darparu gwybodaeth, cyngor a chymorth i ofalwyr.

Ar gyfer 2018/19, mae cyllideb o £1\.095m wedi'i dyrannu i sicrhau cynnydd o ran y blaenoriaethau cenedlaethol, ac mae £3m wedi'i ddyrannu'n benodol i awdurdodau lleol er mwyn eu galluogi i ddarparu cymorth seibiant ychwanegol i ofalwyr.   
  
Er mwyn goruchwylio'r gwaith o gyflawni'r canlyniadau i ofalwyr yn erbyn y blaenoriaethau hyn, mae Grŵp Cynghori'r Gweinidog yn cael ei sefydlu. Bydd yn fforwm cenedlaethol i lywio'r gwaith o ddarparu'r gwelliannau i ofalwyr ynghyd ag ymateb ar draws pob sector i'r heriau maent yn eu hwynebu.   
  
Dywedodd y Gweinidog Plant, Pobl Hŷn a Gofal Cymdeithasol, Huw Irranca\-Davies:  

> "Nid yw'n syndod bod gofalwyr yn gallu esgeuluso eu hiechyd a'u lles eu hunain wrth iddyn nhw ymrwymo i ofalu am eu hanwyliaid yn eu teulu a'r gymuned ehangach. 
> 
> “Mae ein hymrwymiad i hawliau gofalwyr i’w weld yn Neddf Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol a Llesiant (Cymru) 2014\. Mae’r Ddeddf bellach ar waith ers dwy flynedd, a drwy gymorth y Grŵp Cynghori'r Gweinidog newydd, rydw i am sicrhau bod yr hawliau ychwanegol hyn i ofalwyr yn cael eu gwireddu. 
> 
> “Os oes gan ofalwyr anghenion cymwys, mae'n rhaid i'w hawdurdod lleol ddiwallu'r anghenion hynny drwy gynllun cymorth i ofalwyr. 
> 
> "Rydw i am annog pob gofalwr i sicrhau ei fod yn cael asesiad o'i anghenion. Mae'n hollbwysig i ofalwyr edrych ar ôl eu hunain wrth ofalu am eu hanwyliaid."

To mark carers’ awareness week 2018, the Minister visited a carer’s centre in Swansea today to thank carers for their dedicated care to their loved ones and to urge carers to ensure they use their legal right to a carers' assessment.   
  
Under the Social Services and Well\-being (Wales) Act 2014, carers have an equal right to an assessment to see whether they need support to carry out their caring role and, if they do, to have that support provided.   
  
A carer is anyone, of any age, who provides unpaid care and support to a relative, friend or neighbour who needs care and support.  
  
There are estimated to be more than 370,000 carers in Wales, contributing more than £8\.1bn to the Welsh economy every year. 96% of the care provided to people in communities across Wales is given freely by family and friends.  
  
To support the delivery of enhanced rights for carers under the Act the Welsh Government in partnership with stakeholders established three National Priorities for Carers in Wales:  


* Supporting life alongside caring;
* Identifying and recognising carers; and
* Providing information, advice and assistance to carers.

In 2018/19 a budget of £1\.095m has been allocated to the delivery of progress against the national priorities and £3m has been specifically allocated to local authorities to enable them to provide additional respite support for carers  
  
To oversee the delivery of outcomes for carers against these priorities, a Ministerial Advisory Group (MAG) is being established to provide a national forum to steer the delivery of improvements for carers and provide a cross sector response to the challenges they face.    
  
Minister for Children, Older People and Social Care, Huw Irranca\-Davies said:  

> “It is not surprising that as carers dedicate their time to caring for loved ones within families and their wider community, sometimes they can neglect their own health and well\-being.
> 
> “Our commitment to carers’ rights is reflected through the Social Services and Well\-being (Wales) Act 2014\.. We are now two years into the implementation of the Act and with the support of the newly established Ministerial Advisory Group for Carers I want to ensure these enhanced rights for carers are realised.
> 
> “If carers have eligible needs, their local authority must meet those needs through a carers support plan.  
> 
> “I want to urge every carer to ensure they have their needs assessed. While caring for their loves one, it’s crucial they ensure they care for themselves.”
