“Mae Cyfuno yn rhaglen ymyrraeth arloesol, am gost isel sy’n hyrwyddo cydweithio i wasanaethu anghenion pobl Cymru yn well. Ers lansio’r rhaglen cyfuno rydym wedi gweithio gydag awdurdodau lleol, safleoedd treftadaeth, theatrau ac eraill i annog miloedd o bobl na fyddent fel arfer wedi cymryd rhan mewn gweithgareddau diwylliannol, i fod yn rhan o bethau. Rwy’n falch iawn o allu neilltuo dros £200,000 i wyth prosiect newydd ledled Cymru a fydd yn sicrhau y gall y gwaith pwysig hwn barhau."Sefydliad Arweiniol Grant 2017-18Cyngor Bwrdeistref Sirol Torfaen a Chyngor Bwrdeistref Sirol Caerffili - £39,489Amgueddfa Stori Caerdydd - £25,000Dinas a Sir Abertawe - £25,000Cyngor Bwrdeistref Sirol Conwy - £18,585Cartrefi Castellnedd Port Talbot - £25,000Cyngor Gwynedd - £25,000Cyngor Sir Gaerfyrddin - £24,500Cyngor Dinas Casnewydd - £24,933.
“Fusion is an innovative, low-cost intervention that promotes collaboration to better serve the needs of the people of Wales. Since the launch of the Fusion programme we have worked with Local Authorities, heritage sites, theatres and others to encourage thousands of people who might not normally have engaged in cultural activities to get involved. I am very pleased to be able to allocate more than £200,000 to eight new projects across Wales that will enable this important work to continue."Lead Body - Grant 2017-18Torfaen County Borough Council and Caerphilly County Borough Council - £39,489Cardiff Story Museum - £25,000City and County of Swansea - £25,000Conwy  County Borough Council - £18,585Neath Port Talbot Homes - £25,000Cyngor Gwynedd - £25,000Carmarthenshire County Council - £24,500Newport City Council - £24,933.
