Covid-19 Swansea Carers Out of Hours Helpline & Counselling project - Project

Project overview

The Swansea Carers Centre will use �79229 funding to set up an out-of-hours helpline and counselling project. The project will provide an extra 20 hours a week of direct personalised one-to-one virtual/online support for carers. Carers are experiencing a much higher level of mental health issues including stress anxiety and depression as a direct result of the COVID-19 pandemic. This grant will help provide additional support for carers reduce their isolation and increase their friendship networks. Bydd Canolfan Gofalwyr Abertawe yn defnyddio grant o �79229 i sefydlu llinell gymorth a phrosiect cwnsela y tu allan i oriau. Bydd y prosiect yn darparu 20 awr ychwanegol yr wythnos o gymorth rhithiol/ar-lein personol un i un i ofalwyr. Mae gofalwyr yn profi lefel llawer uwch o faterion iechyd meddwl gan gynnwys straen pryder ac iselder ysbryd o ganlyniad uniongyrchol i'r pandemig COVID-19. Bydd y grant hwn yn helpu i ddarparu cefnogaeth ychwanegol i ofalwyr lleihau eu hynysrwydd a chynyddu eu rhwydweithiau cyfeillgarwch.
