Mae’r cynllun wedi bod ar waith ers 2016-17, pan oedd fy nghydweithwyr a minnau’n awyddus i gefnogi plant lleol oedd eisiau gyrfa mewn meddygaeth. Sylweddolom fod bwlch rhwng y cyfleoedd i blant sy’n mynychu ysgolion preifat a’r ysgolion cyfun lleol a gwelsom y rhaglen hon fel ffordd o gau’r bwlch.
The scheme has been going since 2016-17, when my colleagues and I were keen to support local children who wanted a career in medicine. We realised there was a gap between the opportunities for children attending private schools and local comprehensives and we saw this programme as a way of closing the gap.
