Safeguarding Boards in Wales have designated the week commencing 14 November as Safeguarding Week. We welcome this opportunity to recognise the work of frontline staff and to raise awareness of the role everybody has to play in safeguarding both children and adults. The week will be marked by training, workshops and conferences for professionals and the general public on a wide range of issues including adult and child protection, domestic abuse, alcohol awareness, child sexual exploitation and Practice Reviews.  

  

Protecting vulnerable people is everyone’s responsibility. This continues to drive our approach in Wales, working collaboratively with statutory agencies which have key safeguarding responsibilities, and the third sector which also plays a vital role. Abuse in any form will not be tolerated. We must be vigilant that there are effective protection arrangements in place which safeguard individuals.    

  

Through the Social Services and Well\-being (Wales) Act 2014, which came into force in April this year, we have strengthened safeguarding arrangements, partnership working and collaboration. The National Independent Safeguard Board, established under the Act, has aligned itself to the Safeguarding Boards to better understand how they work, promote good practice and advise Ministers on how safeguarding can be improved. The National Board will be publishing its first annual report in December.  

  

We have consistently demonstrated our ability to work across devolved and non\-devolved agencies to secure better outcomes for people. Earlier this year, we published our first National Action Plan to tackle Child Sexual Exploitation. It provides a comprehensive and coherent framework through which the wide array of safeguarding partners can undertake co\-ordinated cross\-agency action to protect children from abuse.  

  

Working with stakeholders, we have ensured that people working in education have the tools and information they need to keep pupils safe.  

  

Schools play a central role in the life of a child, and school staff are ideally placed to identify safeguarding concerns and respond to them, alongside social services and the police. Last year, we published new statutory guidance – Keeping learners safe – clearly setting out the legal duties on education services to create and maintain a safe learning environment for children and young people.  We have published e\-learning modules on the Welsh Government’s education platform \- Hwb \- for all education staff to strengthen safeguarding arrangements.  

We have worked with Barnardo’s Cymru to develop a dedicated education resource. ‘Hidden’ is being delivered in schools to ensure young people are equipped with the knowledge and resilience to help keep themselves safe. We have trained more than 200 practitioners on a multi\-agency basis, and plan to ensure that further training opportunities for education services are available early in 2017\.  

  

Operation Net Safe launched last week. It is led by South Wales Police in partnership with the Lucy Faithfull Foundation, and is an example of an innovative campaign to help stop the creation, viewing and sharing online of indecent images of children.  

  

We welcome the launch on 26 October of the Welsh office of the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse and its Truth Project in Wales. We hope that people will feel supported and have the confidence to come forward to disclose when abuse has taken place.  

  

Effective work is happening on a national, regional and local level and we will continue to drive this agenda forward.

Mae Byrddau Diogelu Cymru wedi cyhoeddi bod yr wythnos sy’n cychwyn ar 14 Tachwedd yn Wythnos Diogelu. Rydyn ni'n croesawu'r cyfle hwn i gydnabod gwaith staff y rheng flaen ac i godi ymwybyddiaeth o'r rôl sydd gan bawb i'w chwarae wrth ddiogelu plant ac oedolion. Bydd yr wythnos yn cynnwys hyfforddiant, gweithdai a chynadleddau i weithwyr proffesiynol a’r cyhoedd ar ystod eang o bynciau gan gynnwys gwarchod plant ac oedolion, cam\-drin domestig, ymwybyddiaeth o alcohol, camfanteisio’n rhywiol ar blant ac Adolygiadau Ymarfer.  
  
Mae gwarchod pobl sy'n agored i niwed yn gyfrifoldeb ar bawb. Dyma’r egwyddor sy’n ein harwain yng Nghymru wrth i ni gydweithio ag asiantaethau statudol sy'n meddu ar gyfrifoldebau diogelu allweddol, a'r trydydd sector sydd hefyd yn chwarae rhan hollbwysig. Ni chaiff unrhyw fath o gam\-drin ei oddef o gwbl. Rhaid i ni sicrhau bod trefniadau diogelu effeithiol yn eu lle i amddiffyn unigolion.  
  
Yn sgil Deddf Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol a Llesiant (Cymru) 2014 a ddaeth i rym ym mis Ebrill, rydyn ni wedi cryfhau’r trefniadau diogelu a’r dulliau o gydweithredu a gweithio mewn partneriaeth. Mae'r Bwrdd Diogelu Annibynnol Cenedlaethol, a sefydlwyd o dan y Ddeddf, yn gweithio ochr yn ochr â'r Byrddau Diogelu er mwyn cael gwell dealltwriaeth o'r ffordd y maent yn gweithio, hyrwyddo arferion da a chynghori Gweinidogion ar sut y gellir gwella'r gwaith o ddiogelu. Bydd y Bwrdd Cenedlaethol yn cyhoeddi ei adroddiad blynyddol cyntaf ym mis Rhagfyr.  
  
Rydyn ni wedi dangos yn gyson ein gallu i weithio gydag asiantaethau datganoledig ac asiantaethau heb eu datganoli i sicrhau gwell canlyniadau i'r bobl. Yn gynharach eleni, cyhoeddwyd ein Cynllun Gweithredu Cenedlaethol i Fynd i'r Afael â Chamfanteisio’n Rhywiol ar Blant. Mae'n darparu fframwaith cynhwysfawr ac eglur fydd yn galluogi’r amrywiaeth eang o bartneriaid diogelu i weithredu'n gyson ar draws asiantaethau i ddiogelu plant rhag cael eu cam\-drin.  
Drwy weithio gyda rhanddeiliad rydyn ni wedi sicrhau bod yr unigolion sy'n gweithio ym myd addysg yn cael yr wybodaeth â’r deunyddiau y mae eu hangen arnynt er mwyn cadw disgyblion yn ddiogel.  
  
Mae ysgolion yn rhan annatod o fywyd plentyn ac mae’r staff mewn lle delfrydol i sylwi ar unrhyw bryderon o ran diogelwch ac ymateb iddynt, ar y cyd â'r gwasanaethau cymdeithasol a'r heddlu. Y llynedd, cyhoeddwyd canllawiau statudol newydd gennym – Cadw dysgwyr yn ddiogel – sy'n nodi'n glir y dyletswyddau cyfreithiol ar wasanaethau addysg i greu a chynnal amgylchedd dysgu diogel i blant a phobl ifanc. Rydyn ni wedi cyhoeddi modiwlau e\-ddysgu ar lwyfan dysgu Llywodraeth Cymru, Hwb, er mwyn i'r holl staff ym myd addysg allu cryfhau eu trefniadau diogelu.  
Rydyn ni wedi gweithio gyda Barnado's Cymru i ddatblygu adnoddau addysgol penodol. Mae ‘Cudd’ yn cael ei ddefnyddio mewn ysgolion i sicrhau bod pobl ifanc yn meddu ar yr wybodaeth a'r hyder i allu cadw eu hunain yn ddiogel. Rydyn ni wedi hyfforddi dros 200 o ymarferwyr amlasiantaeth, a’n bwriad yw sicrhau bod rhagor o gyfleoedd hyfforddi ar gael i wasanaethau addysg yn gynnar yn 2017\.  
  
Lansiwyd Operation Net Safe yr wythnos ddiwethaf. Caiff ei redeg gan Heddlu De Cymru mewn partneriaeth â Sefydliad Lucy Faithfull, ac mae'n enghraifft o ymgyrch arloesol i atal unigolion rhag creu, gwylio a rhannu delweddau anweddus o blant ar\-lein.   
  
Agorwyd Swyddfa yng Nghymru gan yr Ymchwiliad Annibynnol i Gam\-drin Plant yn Rhywiol ar 26 Hydref, gan lansio’r Prosiect Gwirionedd yma ar yr un pryd, ac rydym yn croesawu hynny. Gobeithio y bydd pobl yn teimlo eu bod yn cael eu cefnogi fel bod ganddynt yr hyder i godi eu llais os oes ganddynt brofiad o gael eu cam\-drin.  
  
Caiff gwaith rhagorol ei gyflawni ar lefel leol, ranbarthol a chenedlaethol a byddwn yn parhau i ddatblygu’r agenda hon wrth symud ymlaen.
