Braint noddi lansiad Darllen yn Well ar gyfer Dementia yn y Senedd heddiw.

Mae’r cynllun yn cyfuno dau fater sy’n hollbwysig i mi – cefnogi gofalwyr a phobl sy’n byw gyda dementia a hefyd y rôl hanfodol y mae llyfrau a llyfrgelloedd yn ei chwarae yn ein lles fel cymdeithas.

[The Reading Agency @readingagency]

We're at the Senedd today to celebrate the launch of our #ReadingWell for dementia list in Wales! @WelshGovernment

Reading Well titles are available for anyone to borrow from public libraries across England and Wales.
