## _**Notes:**_ 

_*Yn cynnwys llyfrau (includes books)_ 

_Yn y flwyddyn ariannol hon, gostyngodd incwm rhent of Cymraeg i Oedolion Gwent i £ 0 oherwydd parhaodd dosbarthiadau ar lein yn sgil y pandemig Cofid-19. Derbyniwyd grant busnes oddi trwy Cyngor Sir Fynwy yn 2020-21 i helpu gyda treuliau._ 

_In this financial year, rental income from Cymraeg i Oedolion Gwent was £0 as classed continued online due to the Covid-19 pandemic. A business recovery grant via Monmouthshire County Council was obtained to assist in covering costs._ 

_Mae yswiriant yn parhau i gael ei drefnu trwy Aston Lark Brokers. Y darparwr cyfredol yw Allianz. Mae cyfleusterau cyffredinol, ac eithrio'r_ 

_Insurance continues to be arranged through Aston Lark Brokers.  Current provider is Allianz. General utilities are, with the exception of_

_Dreth Gyngor, yn cael eu talu trwy ddebyd uniongyrchol._ 

_Mae bancwyr yr elusen yn parhau i fod yn Barclays gyda’r llofnodwyr yn dri o’r ymddiriedolwyr, sef Andrea Webber, Lynne Feakes a Naomi Price. Mae angen awdurdod unrhyw ddau o'r tri llofnodwr ar gyfer pob taliad. Am wariant dros £100 (ac eithrio gwariant yn gysylltiedig a chynnal a chadw, cyfleusterau neu trethi lleol) rhaid cael cytundeb y mwyafrif o’r ymddiriedolwyr._ 

_Council Tax, are paid by direct debit._ 

_The charity’s bankers continue to be Barclays with the signatories being three of the trustees, namely, Andrea Webber, Lynne Feakes and Naomi Price.  All payments require authorisation by any two of the three signatories. Expenditure over £100 (other than that associated with essential maintenance, utilities or local taxes) must be approved by a majority of the trustees._
