Ymgysylltu
Rwyf wedi bod yn ymddiriedolwr Cyngor ar Bopeth Pen-y-bont ar Ogwr ers 2019, ac rwy'n gyfrifol am ymchwil ac ymgyrchu. Rwyf hefyd wrthi'n dod yn Gadeirydd elusen newydd sy'n gweithredu cylch chwarae cyfrwng Cymraeg ym Mhen-y-bont ar Ogwr.
Cyn ymuno â Chaerdydd, llwyddais i gael cyllid i roi'r Sefydliad Addysg Gyfreithiol Glinigol (corff ar gyfer academyddion yn ysgolion y gyfraith sy'n rhoi profiad cyfreithiol ymarferol i'w myfyrwyr megis rhedeg canolfannau cynghori).
