English: We work very closely indeed, and I've worked very closely with my colleague Jane Hutt on this, in harnessing the council for voluntary service arrangements right through Wales. We've directed people in large numbers through the council for voluntary service as each locality has it set up in order to enhance that. All local authorities in Wales have used volunteers to do things such as organise services out of their community hubs - so, shopping, prescription fetching, various other things. When we had the food box scheme running, at the beginning of the pandemic, for example, a large number of volunteers were used in assisting with the food box distribution, and a number of people have helped with their community hubs. I'm disappointed to hear that you've had some people who've had a poor experience of being harnessed in that way, and if you've got specifics you want to have a look at, I'm very happy to look at lessons learned. But I'm also very happy to say that, combined with my colleague Jane Hutt, we've been able to mobilise thousands and thousands of people across Wales, to assist with the effort. Also, very many community councils have played a good role here. Community councils have organised very local volunteer teams to do things like make sure that people are not isolated at home, and that they have some companionship, even if that's just over a garden fence, or from the road. We're very proud of the way that Wales has pulled together to assist people who may have otherwise been isolated. But if you have specific instances you're concerned about, then it would be really good to know the detail of those.
Welsh: Rydym yn gweithio'n agos iawn yn wir, ac rwyf wedi gweithio'n agos iawn gyda fy nghyd-Aelod Jane Hutt ar hyn, i harneisio trefniadau cyngor y gwasanaethau gwirfoddol ledled Cymru. Ac rydym wedi cyfeirio nifer fawr o bobl drwy gyngor y gwasanaethau gwirfoddol fel y mae pob ardal wedi'i sefydlu er mwyn gwella hynny. Ac mae pob awdurdod lleol yng Nghymru wedi defnyddio gwirfoddolwyr i wneud pethau fel trefnu gwasanaethau o'u canolfannau cymunedol - felly, siopa, casglu presgripsiynau ac amryw o bethau eraill. Er enghraifft, pan oedd y cynllun bocs bwyd ar waith ar ddechrau'r pandemig, defnyddiwyd nifer fawr o wirfoddolwyr i gynorthwyo gyda dosbarthu'r blychau bwyd, ac mae nifer o bobl wedi helpu gyda'u hybiau cymunedol. Rwy'n siomedig o glywed bod rhai pobl wedi cael profiad gwael o gael eu harneisio yn y ffordd honno, ac os oes gennych fanylion rydych eisiau imi gael golwg arnynt, rwy'n hapus iawn i edrych ar y gwersi a ddysgwyd. Ond rwyf hefyd yn hapus iawn i ddweud ein bod, gyda fy nghyd-Aelod, Jane Hutt, wedi gallu cynnull miloedd ar filoedd o bobl ledled Cymru i gynorthwyo gyda'r ymdrech. Hefyd, mae llawer iawn o gynghorau cymuned wedi chwarae rhan dda yma. Mae cynghorau cymuned wedi trefnu timau gwirfoddol lleol iawn i wneud pethau fel sicrhau nad yw pobl wedi'u hynysu gartref, a'u bod yn cael rhywfaint o gwmni, hyd yn oed os mai dros ffens yr ardd neu o'r ffordd y mae hynny'n digwydd. Rydym yn falch iawn o'r ffordd y mae Cymru wedi cyd-dynnu i gynorthwyo pobl a allai fod wedi'u hynysu fel arall. Ond os oes gennych achosion penodol rydych yn pryderu amdanynt, byddai'n dda iawn gennyf wybod manylion y rheini.
