TAI ADRA Llofnododd Tai Adra y siarter ym mis Tachwedd 2021, y gymdeithas dai gyntaf i’w llofnodi yng Ngogledd Cymru.

Dechreuodd ei ymrwymiad i’r Siarter ar unwaith wrth i staff o’r sefydliad gymryd rhan mewn hyfforddiant Deall Troseddau Casineb ac Ymwybyddiaeth o Droseddau Casineb.

Mae’r sefydliad yn nodi bod Swyddogion Tai Adra yn ymwybodol o’r broses o atgyfeirio dioddefwyr i wasanaethau Cymorth i Ddioddefwyr; byddant yn atgyfeirio i Cymorth i Ddioddefwyr am gymorth arbenigol, os bydd y dioddefwr yn caniatáu hynny.

Mae Adra eisoes yn gwneud gwaith ardderchog i ddangos ei ymrwymiad i’r Siarter. Rydym wrth ein bodd bod ein nod ymddiriedaeth wedi’i ddyfarnu iddo, a gall ei arddangos yn gyhoeddus fel prawf o’i ymrwymiad i’r Siarter.

Commitment to The Charter started right away with staff from the organisation attending Understanding Hate Crime and Mate Crime Awareness training.

The organisation says that Adra Housing Officers are aware of the process of referring victims to Victim Support services; they will refer to Victim Support for specialist support, if the victim allows.

Adra are already doing some great work to show their commitment to The Charter, we are thrilled that they have been issued with our Trustmark, which they can display publicly to show their commitment to The Charter.

YSGOL CAER DREWYN/YSGOL CARROG. The Head teacher of Ysgol Caer Drewyn and Ysgol Carrog signed both schools up to The Hate Crime Charter in December last year after school staff attended a Hate Crime Awareness training session.

Maent i gyd yn uchel eu parch am eu gwaith gyda’r partneriaid.”

“Roedd yr hyfforddiant wedi’i addasu ac roedd yr hyfforddwr yn barod i newid yr iaith lle'r oedd yn briodol i’w wneud yn fwy hygyrch i bobl Awtistig.”

“Bydd yr hyfforddiant yn ein helpu i gyflwyno negeseuon pwysig am gydraddoldeb ac amrywiaeth a nodweddion gwarchodedig, a lle gallwn gyfeirio pobl am help ychwanegol os ydynt yn dioddef troseddau casineb.”

CYNLLUN PEILOT CASINEB AR-LEIN

Mewn partneriaeth â Thîm Cydlyniant Cymunedol Canolbarth a De Orllewin Cymru, cynhaliom weithdai peilot ar ‘Troseddau Casineb’ ym mis Chwefror.

Roedd y gweithdai wedi’u hanelu at bobl yn yr ardal oedd yn gofalu am ofodau cymdeithasol ar-lein, fel grwpiau Facebook lleol.

Roedd y sesiynau’n ceisio chwalu’r mythau ynghylch sut roedd platfformau’n rheoli casineb, archwilio effeithiau niwed ar-lein fel casineb, a rhannu cyngor ymarferol ar sut i fynd i’r afael â chasineb ar-lein.

ADBORTH

Rhoddodd 72% o gyfranogwyr adborth ar ôl y sesiwn.

Ar ôl mynd i’r gweithdy, dywedodd y cyfranogwyr y canlynol:

Roedd 100% yn gwybod mwy am gasineb ar-lein Doedd 42% ddim yn ymwybodol o’r tîm Cydlyniant cyn y gweithdy

Roedd 90% yn teimlo bod y sesiwn wedi’u paratoi’n well i reoli casineb ar-lein mewn gofod cymdeithasol rhithiol Roedd 90% yn teimlo bod y gweithdy wedi’u helpu i ddeall casineb ar-lein yn well fel defnyddiwr personol y cyfryngau cymdeithasol Roedd 38% yn teimlo ei fod wedi’i helpu i deimlo’n ddiogelach ar-lein

Mae 90% bellach yn gwybod sut i roi gwybod am gasineb ar-lein Roedd 95% yn teimlo y dylai’r gweithdy gael ei gynnig ar draws Cymru Roedd 90% yn teimlo y dylai cwmpas y gweithdy gael ei gynnig i fwy o bobl, nid dim ond gweinyddwyr ar-lein Rydym wrthi’n archwilio p’un a ddylai cynllun peilot gael ei ymestyn a ph’un a ddylai fod yn agored i’r cyhoedd neu a ddylai fod ar gyfer gweinyddwyr grwpiau lleol o hyd.

ONLINE HATE PILOT

IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE MID & SOUTH WEST WALES COMMUNITY COHESION TEAM, WE PILOTED WORKSHOPS ON ‘ONLINE HATE’ IN FEBRUARY.

The workshops were aimed at people in the area who were looking after online social spaces such as local Facebook groups.

The sessions sought to debunk myths around how platforms manage hate, explore the impact of online harms such as hate, and to share practical advice on how to tackle online hate.

FEEDBACK

We’re currently exploring whether the pilot should be expanded and whether it should be open to the general public or should still be aimed at local group admins.

We want to hear from YOU! You can share your thoughts on this via e-mail: becca.rosenthal@victimsupport.org.uk REGISTERED CHARITY NO 298028 © VICTIM SUPPORT HATE CRIME TEAM 2022
