The event begins with a short film that illustrates the journey of a care experienced young person when trying to access mental health services, and some of the barriers that can be encountered. This leads into a discussion of the topic which will involve an interactive element aimed to encourage participants to view mental health services through the eyes of care-experienced young people. The short film and activities are co-designed with young people.
Mae’r digwyddiad yn dechrau gyda ffilm fer sy’n darlunio taith person ifanc sydd â phrofiad o fod mewn gofal wrth geisio cael mynediad at wasanaethau iechyd meddwl, a rhai o’r rhwystrau y gellir dod ar eu traws. Mae hyn yn arwain at drafodaeth ar y pwnc a fydd yn cynnwys elfen ryngweithiol gyda'r nod o annog cyfranogwyr i weld gwasanaethau iechyd meddwl trwy lygaid pobl ifanc sydd â phrofiad o fod mewn g ofal. Mae'r ffilm fer a'r gweithgareddau wedi'u cyd-ddylunio gyda phobl ifanc.
The topic of discussion is the mental health needs of care-experienced young people, and the gaps and barriers to their ability to access remote mental health services. Attendees can expect to learn more about the topic and some of the current work being conducted in this area.
Y pwnc trafod yw anghenion iechyd meddwl pobl ifanc sydd wedi cael profiad o fod mewn gofal, a’r bylchau a’r rhwystrau o ran eu gallu i gael mynediad at wasanaethau iechyd meddwl o bell. Gall mynychwyr ddisgwyl dysgu mwy am y pwnc ac am rywfaint o'r gwaith cyfredol sy'n cael ei wneud yn y maes hwn.
