Trustee Governance: Ensuring Accountability & Social Justice TCC'S Board of Trustees pLays a crucial role in ensuring that the organisation remains aligned with its charitable objects, driving social justice and community organising across North East Wales. Trustees are responsible for financial oversight, safeguarding, and strategic governance, ensuring that all activities provide a clear public benefit and comply with Charity Commission guidance. Each year, Trustees conduct a comprehensive review of major risks, including financiaL, operational, and safeguarding concerns, using a structured risk register framework. This ensures that TCC remains accountable, transparent, and resilient in its mission to tackle social injustice. To maintain effective governance, Trustees actively participate in strategy meetings, issue group discussions, and community-Led actions. ensuring a two-way flow of information between leadership and grassroots organisers. They also engage in subgroups such as personnel and finance. providing recommendations that shape decision-making and alLiance-building. TCC is hoping to introduce The Governance App by the Directory of Social Change {DSCI to strengthen leadership and governance, providing Trustees with tools to review governance collectively, assess organisational needs. and track progress. This will ensure that Trustees remain equipped, informed. and engaged, contributing to strong leadership. accountability, and effective decision-making. By embedding community organising principles into governance, Trustees ensure that power remains with the people who drive change on the ground. Their leadership guarantees that TCC continues to fight for socialjustice, build collective power, and uphold its charitable mission in North East Wales. Safeguarding & Ethical Leadership Safeguarding remains a priority within TCC. with all policies reviewed and updated annually to ensure compliance with best practices and regulatory standards. The Chair of Trustees and Co-manager hold Level 3 Safeguarding Training Certification, equipping them with the expertise to oversee safeguarding measures effectively. As a community organising alliance, TCC recognises the importance of handling lived experiences with care, particularly in sensitive areas of work and youth engagement. Our safeguarding framework has evolved to include specific guidance on supporting young people in public vs private settings, ensuring that they are protected while participating in activism, leadership, and decision-making spaces. To uphold active citizenship in adult arenas. TCC has introduced boundaries for wellbeing, ensuring that young leaders engaging with decision-makers and individuals in positions of power are equipped with the tooLs to navigate these spaces safeLy and confidently. Organisational Structure The past year has been a transformative period forTCC, following the appointment of Sue Williams and Ruth Marshall as Co-managers in March 2024, including internal restructuring and comprehensive training.

We have implemented reguLar supervision to continuously support and develop our staff. Additionally, we have restructured our team meetings to focus more on actionable outcomes. This new format ensures that each meeting is dedicated to delivering project aims and enhancing accountability. thereby improving our efficiency and effectiveness. Collaborative Governance: Strengthening Leadership & Accountability TCC'S leadership structure is built on coLLaboration between management, Co- Managers, and the Board of Trustees, ensuring strong governance, financial oversight, and strategic decision-making. The Co-managers work closelywith Trustees to maintain transparency, aLign organisational priorities, and ensure that TCC'S activities continue to serve the community effectively. The Trustees play a key role in upholding TCC'S mission, ensuring that all operations meet legal requirements and adhere to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit. Beyond governance, Trustees carry out financial oversight, strategic decision- making, and safeguarding the integrity of TCC'S work. Trustees engage in subgroups such as personnel and finance, providing recommendations to the full board while maintaining clear lines of communication with the management team. Some Trustees aLso attend monthly Strategy meetings, strengthening the connection between Trustees and organising teams, fostering a two-way flow of information to ensure alignment across leadership levels. This collaborative approach guarantees that TCC remains accountabLe, transparent, and equipped to drive lasting social change, with Trustees and Co-managers working together to sustain and grow the alliance.

TCC Membership The membership comprises of organisations supporting the objects of the charity. At the end of March 2025, there were 40 groups in membership. Our member groups will always shape the landscape of the work that TCC does; it is important that organisers constantly check in. assess, and evaluate their work to ensure that training and campaigns remain authentic, respectful, and relevant to the needs of our community. TCC is committed to developing our reLationship with members, and we continue to focus on having conversations with diverse groups about the issues affecting their communities and the relevance of community organising in responding to those. Expanding Membership for Greater Community Power In recent years, TCC has engaged in extensive conversations across North East Wales, recognising that many individuaLs passionate about social justice lacked a formal way to participate. In response. we introduced individual membership, ensuring broader access to organising, campaigning, and decision-making. To remove financial barriers, we aLso proposed a sponsorship programme, ensuring organisations can remain part of TCC without financial strain. FolLowing community consuLtations, our Trustee Board approved the proposal, setting the groundwork for fLexibLe membership. training opportunities, and new pathways for involvement. Our priority for the comingyear is to grow our membership base, particularly expanding in Flintshire and Denbighshire. Finances The funding commitments TCC received from the National Lottery Community Fund, The Tudor Trust, Paul Hamlyn Foundation, Civic Power Fund, Lloyds Bank Foundation EngLand and Wales, Postcode CommunityTrust, Costa, and Oxfam have been much appreciated and have provided continuity.

Amplifying Change: Digital Tools for Collective Action Over the past year, our alliance has strengthened its ability to drive change through digitaL seLf-sufficiency and media empowerment. By investing in new camera and audio recording equipment, along with professional editing software, we have equipped ourselves to create high-quality campaign and training videos- eliminating reliance on costly external providers. This move has enhanced our abiLity to communicate, train, and amplify the voices of those involved in grassroots organising. Additionally, we have launched the Community Power Podcast, a platform where members of our alliance share their experiences, struggles. and victories. Episodes feature interviews with TCC Trustees, youth groups. and discussions on the impact of organising at local, national. and international levels. Effective organising requires visibility, accessibility, and narrative control. HistoricalLy, community movements have depended on external media or limited traditional structures to document their work. By developing in-house digital capacity, our alliance ensures that our stories are toLd by us, for us, refLecting the true experiences of those involved in power-building and change-making. Furthermore, the podcast and training resources establish continuous learning and engagement, helping communities not only share knowledge but also strategically influence decision- makers. The abiLity to rapidly produce and disseminate media strengthens organisational autonomy, making our campaigns more agile. responsive, and impactful. Through investment in training, technology. and collaborative partnerships, we have successfulLy embedded digital empowerment into our organising framework. Practical steps include training teams on media production tools. establishing strategic partnerships, such as our Q&A session with Matt Hildreth, Executive Director of Ruralorganizing and RuralProgress, and supportingyouth leadership development, as seen in the interview with Clare Dixon, former Head of Latin America & Caribbean Operations for CAFOD. TCC worked closely with the Young Leaders of St Mary's Church, Wrexham, to formuLate the interview structure, while also liaising with CAFOD to organise the session. By embedding digital training and storytelling into our core organising work, we are strengthening our colLective power. ensuring our alliance remains a self-sustaining force for change. Activities and Impact TCC aLliance members have dedicated countless hours to volunteering, researching, and awareness-raising, strengthening our collective impact, but we have not acted alone. AIL of these successes have been achieved by working with other organisations, groups, and individuals in the area. Collaboration has been at the heart of our progress, strengthening our ability to engage effectively and drive meaningful change. Our reach has extended further through actions on campaigns. participation in webinars, networking events, shared learning sessions, and accountability meetings. The past few years have proven challenging for many organisations, no less the third sector, but have aLso Led to opportunities-specifically regarding fresh ways of engagement and enabling effective dialogue with the communities surrounding us. Extending our digital engagement efforts even further, throughout 2023, we have been actively enhancing our digital outreach capacity. This incLudes developing a new website and related training and learning tools designed to support organisational growth and deepen community connection. By integrating these advancements with our ongoing consultation efforts, we have ensured that every voice is heard while fostering inclusivity, collaboration, and sustained engagement. Given the strong support for greater involvement, we ask the board to consider introducing individual membership as a means of further empowering our network and expanding meaningful participation Impact & Engagement: Strengthening Our Reach Building power within communities requires strategic engagement, colLective decision-making, and meaningful training.

Whatwe Have Been Building Accountability Meetings 2024 Preparation for TCC'S Accountability Meetings began in March 2024 with one-to-one discussions with past community leaders. These meetings were widely promoted to engage new organisers. Though the general election had yet to be announced, it was expected in Autumn 2024. as the final possible date was January 2025. Significant boundary changes across Wales reduced constituencies from forty to thirty-two, prompting training and information sessions for member groups. Information packs outLined these adjustments and their impact. The election was called on May 22nd for July 4th. In response, community organisers hosted democracy sessions on MPS, roles, boundary restructuring, and the purpose of the Accountability Meetings. These sessions, integrated into TCC Strategy Meetings, engaged visiting groups and young people in schools and youth organisations. Eight key questions were developed, including two from young people, addressing climate change targets, candidates, priorities, foodbank reliance, refugee application processing, votes at 16. the cost-of-living crisis. and the No Hungry Learners campaign. Given the election's short notice, meetings were moved onLine. Member groups collaborated on scripts, question development, Welsh language inclusion, and co- chairing. Thirty-two candidates across five new constituencies were contacted, with twenty-seven confirming participation. All candidates who attended the meetings assured TCC that they would work with the organisation if elected as Members of Parliament for their constituencies. underscoring the significance of community-led initiatives in shaping policy and representation. Financial Justice Work The Financial Justice Working Group (FJWG) was established following a Cost-of- Living Summit organised by TCC and hosted by We Are Plas Madoc in 2022. Its role is to:_ a) Gather and document the lived experiences and challenges of those affected by poverty and the cost of living. b) Identify financial barriers and challenges faced by communities in Wrexham. c} DeveLop recommendations for WPAC to help influence Local decision-makers and power hoLders, with the aim of improving financial justice across Wrexham. The Financial Justice Working Group is an ever-expanding group of nineteen grassroots communities and local organisations that will continue to provide data and lived experiences to the Wrexham Poverty Action CoLlaboration to influence power holders and decision makers in deveLoping a Tackling Poverty Strategy for Wrexham. Tackling Poverty Summit The Summit was organised by both the Wrexham Poverty Action Collaboration {WPAC) and the Financial Justice Working Group (FJWG) - the event highlighted data, insights, and the Lived experiences of those affected by poverty and the cost of Living in Wrexham. These were shared with power hoLders and decision-makers in Wrexham, including off icers and Lead Members of Wrexham CounciL, Wrexham's Member of Parliament, the Wrexham and Flintshire Public Services Board, Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board, and the Department for Work and Pensions. The Summit aimed not onLy to promote the work of the WPAC and share the lived experiences of those in poverty and crisis, but also to secure pledges from decision- makers and power holders to work in partnership with the Collaboration. A report of the event will soon be pubLished and will outline the case studies and lived experiences highlighted at the Summit. identifies common themes, and makes recommendations for areas of focus in the development of a comprehensive Tackling Poverty Strategy for Wrexham.

Cariad Teg is turning ideas into action and ensuringthat women's organising remains at the heart of TCC'S movement-building 12 Organising for Accessibility FLintshire Coastal Path The campaign for the removal of barriers aLong the Flintshire Coastal Path was led by TCC (Together Creating Communities) and its member groups. This initiative aimed to ensure accessibility for all, particularlywheelchair users and those with double prams. Despite initial resistance from Flintshire County Council, the campaign gained momentum with the support of local and national organisations, as well as politicaL figures. Extensive research highlighted that the barrier policy contravened various equality plans and objectives. The campaign group. incLuding local and national organizations, held regular meetings to strategise and share experiences. Social media played a crucial role in capturing and sharing the lived experiences of individuals affected by the barriers, which helped garner widespread support and attention from policymakers. The campaign's efforts culminated in a Day of Action, which, despite being postponed, led to Flintshire Council agreeing to remove the barriers. The removal process has begun, and the campaign group remains committed to ensuring fuLI accessibility. This case study underscores the power of collective action and community organising in driving social change and ensuring accessibility for all. Denbighshire Beach Accessibility TCC have been workingwith member groups to identify power holders within Denbighshire Council to campaign for the installation of boardwaLks on Denbighshire beaches. Correspondence has been sent to the local authority and meetings with officers are currently being arranged. Changing Places ToiLets The Changing Places Toilets campaign has been a long-standing initiative at TCC. Over the past 30 months, the campaign has achieved severaL notable wins. However, progress has been significantly restricted due to financial limitations at both County Council and WeLsh Government levels. The campaign has recently resumed contact with large supermarkets in the area to explore the installation of Changing Places facilities on their premises. After two years of campaigning and repeated requests for a timescale for a Changing Places Toilet at a large retail park in Flintshire (and folLowing several false starts), it now appears that this may soon come to fruition. after receiving positive news from the Retail Centre Manager. 13 Mental Health Action: Organisingfor Change Community Led Mental Health Action At TCC, we believe that meaningfuL change begins with colLaboration and a shared vision for a healthier, more compassionate society.

Mewn ymateb, fe wnaethom gyflwyno aelodaeth unigol, gan sicrhau mynediad ehangach i drefnu, ymgyrchu a llunio penderfyniadau. Er mwyn cael gwared ar rwystrau ariannol, fe wnaethom hefyd gynnig rhaglen nawdd, gan sicrhau bod sefydliadau yn gallu parhau i fod yn rhan o TCC heb straen ariannol. Yn dilyn ymgynghoriadau cymunedol, cymeradwyodd ein Bwrdd Ymddiriedolwyr y cynnig, gan osod y sylfaen ar gyfer aelodaeth hyblyg, cyfleoedd hyfforddi, a llwybrau newydd ar gyfer cyfranogiad. Ein blaenoriaeth ar gyfer y flwyddyn i ddod yw tyfu ein sylfaen aelodaeth, yn enwedig ehangu yn Sir y Fflint a Sir Ddinbych. ## Cyllid Derbyniodd TCC ymrwymiadau ariannu oddi wrth Gronfa Gymunedol y Loteri Sefydliad Banc Lloyds Cymru a Lloegr, Ymddiriedolaeth Gymunedol Cod Post, Costa Rydym yn ddiolchgar iawn i'r cyllidwyr hyn am eu cefnogaeth a'u perthnasau parhaus â TCC.

Mae hyfforddiant TCC yn darparu'r wybodaeth a'r hyder i unigolion drefnu, eirioli a gweithredu ar faterion cyfiawnder cymdeithasol. Mae TCC hefyd wedi ailwampio ei ddarpariaeth hyfforddiant, gan feithrin ymgysylltiad creadigol trwy wefan newydd a modiwlau hyfforddiant ar-lein, sy'n cwmpasu: - Cyflwyniad i Drefnu Cymunedol - Trefnu Digidol - Crefft Ymgyrchu - Diogelu a Lles Trwy weithdai, mentora, cyfarfodydd strategol, a gweithredu creadigol, mae TCC yn sicrhau bod hyfforddiant yn parhau i fod yn hygyrch, yn effeithiol ac yn addasadwy i anghenion cymunedau. ## Chwyddo Newid: Offer Digidol ar gyfer Gweithredu ar y Cyd Dros y flwyddyn ddiwethaf, mae ein cynghrair wedi cryfhau ei gallu i yrru newid trwy hunangynhaliaeth ddigidol a grymuso cyfryngau. Trwy fuddsoddi mewn camera ac offer recordio sain newydd, ynghyd â meddalwedd golygu hyfforddi o ansawdd uchel - gan ddileu dibyniaeth ar ddarparwyr allanol costus. Mae'r datblygiad hwn wedi gwella ein gallu i gyfathrebu, hyfforddi a chwyddo lleisiau'r rheiny sy'n ymwneud â threfnu ar lawr gwlad. llwyfan lle mae aelodau ein cynghrair yn rhannu eu profiadau, eu brwydrau a'u TCC, grwpiau ieuenctid, a thrafodaethau ar effaith trefnu ar lefelau lleol, cenedlaethol a rhyngwladol. hanesyddol, mae mudiadau cymunedol wedi dibynnu ar gyfryngau allanol neu strwythurau traddodiadol cyfyngedig i ddogfennu eu gwaith. Trwy ddatblygu capasiti digidol mewnol, mae ein cynghrair yn sicrhau bod ein straeon yn cael eu hadrodd gennym ni, drosom ni, gan adlewyrchu gwir brofiadau'r rheiny sy'n adnoddau hyfforddi yn sefydlu dysgu ac ymgysylltu parhaus, gan helpu cymunedau i rannu gwybodaeth yn ogystal â dylanwadu ar lunwyr penderfyniadau yn strategol. Mae'r gallu i gynhyrchu a lledaenu cyfryngau yn gyflym yn cryfhau ymreolaeth sefydliadol, gan wneud ein hymgyrchoedd yn fwy ystwyth, ymatebol ac effeithiol. Trwy fuddsoddi mewn hyfforddiant, technoleg a phartneriaethau cydweithredol, rydym wedi llwyddo i ymgorffori grymuso digidol yn ein fframwaith trefnu. Ymhlith y camau ymarferol mae hyfforddi timau ar offer cynhyrchu cyfryngau, sefydlu partneriaethau strategol, fel ein sesiwn Holi ac Ateb â Matt Hildreth, Cyfarwyddwr Gweithredol RuralOrganizing a RuralProgress, a chefnogi datblygiad arweinyddiaeth ieuenctid, fel y gwelir yn y cyfweliad â Clare Dixon, strwythur y cyfweliad, wrth hefyd yn cysylltu â CAFOD i drefnu'r sesiwn. Trwy ymgorffori hyfforddiant digidol, ac adrodd straeon, yn ein gwaith trefnu parhau i fod yn rym hunangynhaliol ar gyfer newid. ## Gweithgareddau ac Effaith Mae aelodau cynghrair TCC wedi neilltuo oriau di-ri i wirfoddoli, ymchwilio a chodi ymwybyddiaeth, gan gryfhau ein heffaith ar y cyd, ond nid ydym wedi gweithredu ar ein pen ein hunain. Cyflawnwyd yr holl lwyddiannau hyn trwy weithio â sefydliadau, grwpiau ac unigolion eraill yn yr ardal. Mae cydweithio wedi bod wrth wraidd ein cynnydd, gan gryfhau ein gallu i ymgysylltu'n effeithiol a gyrru newid ystyrlon. Mae ein dylanwad wedi ymestyn ymhellach trwy weithredoedd ar ymgyrchoedd, cymryd rhan mewn gweminarau, digwyddiadau rhwydweithio, sesiynau dysgu a rennir, a chyfarfodydd atebolrwydd. Mae'r blynyddoedd diwethaf wedi bod yn heriol i lawer o sefydliadau, gan gynnwys y trydydd sector, ond maent hefyd wedi arwain at gyfleoedd - yn benodol o ran ffyrdd newydd o ymgysylltu a galluogi deialog effeithiol â'r cymunedau o'n cwmpas. Gan ymestyn ein hymdrechion ymgysylltu digidol hyd yn oed ymhellach, trwy gydol 2023, rydym wedi mynd ati i wella ein gallu allgymorth digidol. Mae hyn yn cynnwys datblygu gwefan newydd, ac offer hyfforddi a dysgu cysylltiedig, sydd wedi'u dylunio i gefnogi twf sefydliadol a dyfnhau cysylltiadau cymunedol. Trwy integreiddio'r datblygiadau hyn â'n hymdrechion ymgynghori parhaus, rydym wedi sicrhau bod pob llais yn cael ei glywed wrth feithrin cynhwysiant, cydweithredu ac ymgysylltu parhaus. O ystyried y gefnogaeth gref i fwy o gyfranogiad, gofynnwn i'r bwrdd ystyried cyflwyno aelodaeth unigol fel modd o rymuso ein rhwydwaith ymhellach, ac ehangu cyfranogiad ystyrlon ## Effaith ac Ymgysylltu: Cryfhau Ein Dylanwad penderfyniadau ar y cyd, a hyfforddiant ystyrlon.

Mae'r ymgysylltiad parhaus hwn yn adlewyrchu ymroddiad ein haelodau a'n partneriaid, gan feithrin cydweithrediad dyfnach a chanlyniadau effeithiol. - Ymgysylltu â 700+ o unigolion newydd, gan gynnwys aelod-grwpiau, bob rhan o'r sbectrwm, gan atgyfnerthu rôl TCC fel catalydd ar gyfer cyfiawnder cymdeithasol a chydweithredu. - Ehangu cyfleoedd hyfforddi i ddarparu sgiliau trefnu ac offer eirioli i gymunedau. - Hwyluso cyfarfodydd strategol, ymchwil i faterion, a gweithredoedd ymgyrchu i sicrhau momentwm parhaus. Cryfhau partneriaethau ac ehangu ein dylanwad, gan sicrhau bod lleisiau o bob sector - trefnwyr ar lawr gwlad, llunwyr polisi, a chyllidwyr - yn gweithio ar y cyd tuag at newid. Yn ystod y flwyddyn ddiwethaf mae TCC wedi llwyddo i gynnal ac ehangu ei effaith yn sylweddol, gan sicrhau bod hyfforddiant, trefnu a meithrin perthnasau yn trosi i weithredu trawsnewidiol. ## Yr Hyn Rydyn Ni Wedi Bod yn Ei Adeiladu ## Cyfarfodydd Atebolrwydd 2024 Dechreuodd paratoadau ar gyfer Cyfarfodydd Atebolrwydd TCC ym mis Mawrth 2024 â thrafodaethau un-i-un ag arweinwyr cymunedol blaenorol. Hyrwyddwyd y cyfarfodydd hyn yn eang i ennyn diddordeb trefnwyr newydd. Er nad oedd yr etholiad cyffredinol wedi'i gyhoeddi eto, roedd disgwyl iddo ddigwydd yn Hydref 2024, oherwydd y dyddiad hwyraf posibl oedd Ionawr 2025. Fe wnaeth newidiadau sylweddol i ffiniau ledled Cymru leihau etholaethau o ddeugain i deuddeg ar hugain, gan ysgogi sesiynau hyfforddi a gwybodaeth i aelod-grwpiau. Roedd pecynnau gwybodaeth yn manylu ar yr addasiadau hyn a'u heffaith. Cyhoeddwyd ar Fai 22ain y cynhelir yr etholiad ar Orffennaf 4ydd. Mewn ymateb, cynhaliodd trefnwyr cymunedol sesiynau democratiaeth ar rolau ASau, ailstrwythuro ffiniau, a phwrpas y Cyfarfodydd Atebolrwydd. Roedd y sesiynau hyn, wedi'u hintegreiddio mewn Cyfarfodydd Strategaeth TCC, yn ymgysylltu â grwpiau a oedd yn ymweld a phobl ifanc mewn ysgolion a sefydliadau ieuenctid. Datblygwyd wyth cwestiwn allweddol, gan gynnwys dau gan bobl ifanc, yn mynd i'r afael â thargedau newid hinsawdd, blaenoriaethau ymgeiswyr, dibyniaeth ar fanciau bwyd, prosesu ceisiadau ffoaduriaid, pleidleisio yn 16 oed, yr argyfwng costau byw, a'r ymgyrch Dim Dysgwyr Llwglyd. Oherwydd rhybudd byr yr etholiad, symudwyd y cyfarfodydd ar-lein. Cydweithiodd aelodau-grwpiau ar sgriptiau, datblygu cwestiynau, cynnwys y Gymraeg, a chyd-gadeirio. Cysylltwyd â thri-deg-dau o ymgeiswyr ar draws pum etholaeth newydd, â saith ar hugain yn cadarnhau cyfranogiad. Rhoddodd yr holl sefydliad pe baent yn cael eu hethol yn Aelodau Seneddol ar gyfer eu hetholaethau, gan danlinellu arwyddocâd mentrau dan arweiniad y gymuned wrth lunio polisïau a chynrychiolaeth. ## Gwaith Cyfiawnder Ariannol Sefydlwyd y Gweithgor Cyfiawnder Ariannol (FJWG) yn dilyn Uwchgynhadledd Costau Byw a drefnodd TCC y gwnaeth We Are Plas Madoc ei chynnal yn 2022. Ei rôl yw:- a) Casglu a dogfennu heriau a phrofiadau byw'r rheiny y mae tlodi a chostau byw yn effeithio arnynt. b) Nodi heriau a rhwystrau a ariannol sy'n wynebu cymunedau yn Wrecsam.

Nod yr Uwchgynhadledd oedd hyrwyddo gwaith y WPAC a rhannu profiadau byw'r rheiny mewn tlodi ac argyfwng, yn ogystal â sicrhau addewidion gan lunwyr Cydweithredu. Cyhoeddir adroddiad y digwyddiad cyn bo hir a bydd yn amlinellu'r astudiaethau achos a'r profiadau byw y tynnwyd sylw atynt yn yr Uwchgynhadledd, yn nodi themâu cyffredin, ac yn gwneud argymhellion ar gyfer meysydd ffocws wrth ddatblygu Strategaeth Trechu Tlodi gynhwysfawr ar gyfer Wrecsam. gyfer menywod â chyfrifoldebau gofalu, gan sicrhau bod eu lleisiau'n llunio polisi, eiriolaeth a gweithredu ar lawr gwlad. Gyda chefnogaeth Oxfam, rydym wedi creu mannau i fenywod drefnu, rhannu profiadau, a gyrru newid systemig. Trwy sgyrsiau dan arweiniad y gymuned, ymchwil ac ymgyrchu, mae Cariad Teg yn cryfhau rhwydweithiau ac yn sicrhau bod gwaith gofal yn cael ei gydnabod, ei werthfawrogi ac yn ganolog i ymdrechion cyfiawnder cymdeithasol. Mae'r fenter hon yn dilyn y fframwaith trefnu cymunedol, gan sicrhau bod menywod yn arwain y mudiad, yn adeiladu perthnasoedd, ac yn gweithredu ar y materion pwysicaf. Trwy ddatblygu arweinyddiaeth, tyfu cynghreiriau, ac ymgysylltu â llunwyr penderfyniadau, mae Cariad Teg yn troi syniadau yn weithredoedd ac yn sicrhau bod trefnu gan fenywod yn parhau i fod wrth wraidd gwaith adeiladu mudiadau TCC ## Trefnu ar gyfer Hygyrchedd ## Llwybr Arfordir Sir y Fflint -grwpiau, yr ymgyrch dros gael gwared ar rwystrau ar hyd Llwybr Arfordir Sir y Fflint. Nod y fenter hon oedd sicrhau hygyrchedd i bawb, yn enwedig defnyddwyr cadair olwyn a'r rheiny sydd â phramiau dwbl. Er gwaethaf gwrthwynebiad cychwynnol gan Gyngor Sir y Fflint, enillodd yr ymgyrch fomentwm â chefnogaeth sefydliadau lleol a chenedlaethol, yn ogystal â ffigurau gwleidyddol. sefydliadau lleol a chenedlaethol, gyfarfodydd rheolaidd i strategeiddio a rhannu profiadau. Chwaraeodd y cyfryngau cymdeithasol rôl hanfodol wrth gofnodi a gasglu cefnogaeth a sylw eang gan lunwyr polisi. Arweiniodd ymdrechion yr ymgyrch at Ddiwrnod Gweithredu, er bod hwn wedi cael ei ohirio, arweiniodd at Gyngor Sir y Fflint yn cytuno i gael gwared ar y parhau i fod yn ymrwymedig i sicrhau hygyrchedd llawn. Mae'r astudiaeth achos cymdeithasol a sicrhau hygyrchedd i bawb. ## Hygyrchedd Traethau Sir Ddinbych Mae TCC wedi bod yn gweithio ag aelodCyngor Sir Ddinbych i ymgyrchu dros osod llwybrau pren ar draethau Sir swyddogion yn cael eu trefnu ar hyn o bryd. ## Toiledau Changing Places Mae'r ymgyrch Toiledau Changing Places wedi bod yn fenter hirdymor yn TCC. Dros y 30 mis diwethaf, mae'r ymgyrch wedi cyflawni sawl buddugoliaeth nodedig. Fodd bynnag, mae cynnydd wedi'i gyfyngu'n sylweddol oherwydd cyfyngiadau ariannol ar lefel Cyngor Sir a Llywodraeth Cymru. Yn ddiweddar, mae'r ymgyrch wedi ailddechrau cysylltiad ag archfarchnadoedd mawr yn yr ardal i archwilio gosod cyfleusterau Changing Places ar eu safle. Ar ôl dwy flynedd o ymgyrchu, a cheisiadau dro ar ôl tro am amserlen ar gyfer Toiled Changing Places Toilet parc manwerthu mawr yn Sir y Fflint (ac yn dilyn sawl dechrau ffug), mae'n ymddangos bellach y gallai hyn ddwyn ffrwyth yn fuan, ar ôl derbyn newyddion cadarnhaol gan Reolwr y Ganolfan Manwerthu. ## Gweithredu Iechyd Meddwl: Trefnu ar gyfer Newid ## Gweithredu Iechyd Meddwl dan Arweiniad y Gymuned Yn TCC, credwn fod newid ystyrlon yn dechrau â chydweithrediad a gweledigaeth a rennir ar gyfer cymdeithas iachach a mwy tosturiol.
