Mae’n hawl sylfaenol na ddylai’r un ohonom orfod dioddef oherwydd camfanteisio, camdriniaeth nac esgeulustod. Ers cyhoeddi canllawiau ‘Mewn Dwylo Diogel’ yn 2000, gwelwyd newid sylweddol yn ein dulliau diogelu. Bellach defnyddir dulliau cydlynol nad oedd yn bodoli 10 mlynedd yn ôl i amddiffyn oedolion sy’n agored i niwed. Hefyd, mae mwy o ddealltwriaeth o faterion sy’n ymwneud â cham-drin. Fodd bynnag, nid yw’r gwaith wedi dod i ben a rhaid parhau i ddatblygu ein trefniadau amddiffyn, gan sicrhau eu bod mor effeithiol â phosibl er mwyn i ni allu cael gwared ar gamdriniaeth yng Nghymru.
It is a basic right that each of us should be free of exploitation, abuse and neglect.  Since the publication of the ‘In Safe Hands’ Guidance document in 2000 we have seen a step change in the way in which safeguarding is delivered. There is now a coherent approach to adult protection that did not exist 10 years ago and a much deeper understanding of adult abuse. This work however must not stop there; we must continue develop our protection arrangements to ensure that they remain as strong as possible in order to eradicate abuse in Wales.
