The cared for person may be a family member or a friend, who due to illness, disability, a mental health problem or an addiction cannot cope without their support.
Gall y person sy'n derbyn gofal fod yn aelod o'r teulu neu'n ffrind na all, oherwydd salwch, anabledd, problem iechyd meddwl neu ddibyniaeth, ymdopi heb eu cymorth.
