NEWS: Funding available to strengthen food support and tackle poverty in Powys 🍓🍄‍🟫🍗

Community organisations across Powys are being encouraged to apply for funding to help strengthen food provision, improve access to nutritious meals and tackle poverty.

Powys County Council has launched its Food Aid Small Grant Fund, offering grants of up to £9,000 per project to eligible not-for-profit organisations delivering services to residents.

The fund aims to support a wide range of initiatives that make a real difference, including food banks, community meal schemes, food parcel services, and projects that build longer-term resilience such as food growing and distribution schemes.

Money is available for both revenue costs (up to £4,000) and capital costs (up to £5,000), helping organisations to expand their reach, purchase equipment, and deliver new or enhanced services.

Projects supported through the fund must benefit people living in Powys and demonstrate how they address local need, reduce inequalities and create sustainable, longer-term impact.

NEWYDDION: Cyllid ar gael i gryfhau cymorth bwyd a mynd i'r afael â thlodi ym Mhowys 🍓🍄‍🟫🍗

Mae sefydliadau cymunedol ledled Powys yn cael eu hannog i wneud cais am gyllid i helpu i gryfhau'r ddarpariaeth bwyd, gwella mynediad at brydau maethlon a mynd i'r afael â thlodi.

Mae Cyngor Sir Powys wedi lansio ei Gronfa Grantiau Bach Cymorth Bwyd, gan gynnig grantiau o hyd at £9,000 fesul prosiect i sefydliadau nid-er-elw cymwys sy'n darparu gwasanaethau i breswylwyr.

Nod y gronfa yw cefnogi ystod eang o fentrau sy'n gwneud gwahaniaeth gwirioneddol, gan gynnwys banciau bwyd, cynlluniau prydau cymunedol, gwasanaethau parseli bwyd, a phrosiectau sy'n adeiladu gwytnwch tymor hwy fel cynlluniau tyfu a dosbarthu bwyd.

Mae a***n ar gael ar gyfer costau refeniw (hyd at £4,000) a chostau cyfalaf (hyd at £5,000), gan helpu sefydliadau i ehangu eu cyrhaeddiad, prynu offer, a darparu gwasanaethau newydd neu well.

Rhaid i brosiectau a gefnogir drwy'r gronfa fod o fudd i bobl sy'n byw ym Mhowys a dangos sut maent yn mynd i'r afael ag anghenion lleol, lleihau anghydraddoldebau a chreu effaith gynaliadwy, hirdymor.

We welcome this successful prosecution and would like to congratulate Swansea Council on their hard work in bringing this case forward.

The Food Standards Agency was pleased to support the investigation, including funding sampling activity and providing support through our National Food Crime Unit. This case demonstrates how effective partnership working can identify and tackle non-compliance, helping to protect consumers and maintain confidence in the food system.

In one example a lamb doner which claimed to contain 87% lamb was found to contain only 51% meat and 40% fat.

Rydyn ni’n croesawu’r erlyniad llwyddiannus hwn a hoffen ni longyfarch Cyngor Abertawe am weithio’n galed i ddod â’r achos hwn yn ei flaen.

Roedd yr Asiantaeth Safonau Bwyd yn falch o gefnogi’r ymchwiliad, gan gynnwys drwy a***nnu gwaith samplu a chynnig cefnogaeth yr Uned Genedlaethol Troseddau Bwyd. Mae’r achos hwn yn dangos sut mae gweithio’n effeithiol mewn partneriaeth yn gallu ein helpu i nodi diffyg cydymffurfio a mynd i’r afael â fe, gan ddiogelu defnyddwyr a chynnal hyder yn y system fwyd.

A hithau’n Ddiwrnod Diogelwch Bwyd y Byd, dyma ni’n lansio ymgyrch i’ch helpu i gadw'n ddiogel pan fyddwch chi’n paratoi ac yn coginio bwyd yn eich cegin.

O atal croeshalogi i storio bwyd dros ben yn ddiogel, mae pethau bychain yn gwneud gwahaniaeth mawr. Felly, nod yr ymgyrch yw helpu pobl i gadw eu hunain a’u hanwyliaid yn ddiogel rhag afiechydon fel gwenwyn bwyd.

Byddwn ni’n rhannu cyngor ymarferol i’ch helpu i drin bwyd yn ddiogel gartref – mae hylendid bwyd da yn diogelu pawb.
