Yn Autistic Haven CIC, rydym yn cynnal sesiynau celf a chrefft i’r teulu ddwywaith y mis sydd wedi’u cynllunio’n benodol ar gyfer plant Awtistig. Rydym yn darparu'r holl ddeunyddiau celf, toes chwarae, a gemau difyr mewn lleoliad hamddenol a diogel. Mae’r sesiynau hyn yn cynnig amgylchedd meithringar a chreadigol lle gall teuluoedd ymlacio a mwynhau amser o ansawdd gyda’i gilydd.

Dan arweiniad y talentog Rowenna Williams o Gelf Gwyllt Cymru, mae teuluoedd y Bala a’r cyffiniau wedi bod yn cymryd rhan weithgar yn y sesiynau hyn, gan ddysgu sgiliau newydd a chreu prosiectau celf a chrefft amrywiol. O blastr creaduriaid Paris i greaduriaid y gwanwyn, addurniadau ar gyfer y Nadolig a’r Pasg, mae ein sesiynau’n ysbrydoli creadigrwydd a llawenydd.

Mae gweld y doniau unigryw sydd gan y plant a’u rhieni i’r sesiynau hyn wedi bod yn syfrdanol.

Yn 2023, roedd Autistic Haven yn ffodus i dderbyn cyllid gan UnLtd, sydd wedi bod yn allweddol wrth gynnal y sesiynau hyn. Fodd bynnag, mae’r cyllid hwn yn dod i ben, ac rydym angen eich cefnogaeth i barhau i gynnig y rhaglenni hanfodol hyn.

Os gwelwch yn dda, ystyriwch gyfrannu i'n helpu i sicrhau cyllid ychwanegol a chadw'r sesiynau pwysig hyn i fynd ar gyfer ein teuluoedd. Bydd eich haelioni yn sicrhau bod plant Awtistig yn ein cymuned yn parhau i gael lle diogel a chreadigol i ffynnu.

Adborth rhieni "Mae ein teulu wedi mwynhau'r sesiynau celf a chrefft yn Autistic Haven yn fawr. Mae Janatha, y trefnydd, yn hynod gynnes a thosturiol, gan greu awyrgylch croesawgar i bawb. Mae ein plentyn un ar ddeg oed, sydd ag anableddau dysgu, yn cyfrif y dyddiau tan y sesiwn nesaf yn eiddgar. Mae'n mwynhau'r gweithgareddau celf a chrefft yn fawr, ac er gwaethaf ei anawsterau cyfathrebu, roedd wrth ei fodd pan ddaeth plentyn arall i'w gofleidio'n ddiweddar. I ni fel rhieni, mae wedi bod yn amhrisiadwy cysylltu ag eraill sydd mewn sefyllfaoedd tebyg. Mae siarad ag eraill sy'n wirioneddol 'ei gael' yn gwneud gwahaniaeth gwirioneddol."

Diolch am eich cefnogaeth!

At Autistic Haven CIC, we host twice-monthly family arts and crafts sessions specifically designed for Autistic children. We provide all the necessary art materials, homemade playdough, and engaging games in a relaxed and safe setting. These sessions offer a nurturing and creative environment where families can unwind and enjoy quality time together.

Led by the talented Rowenna Williams of Wild Art Wales, families in Bala and the surrounding areas have been actively participating in these sessions, learning new skills and creating various art and craft projects. From plaster of Paris creatures to spring sprites, and festive decorations for Christmas and Easter, our sessions inspire creativity and joy.

Witnessing the unique talents that the children and their parents bring to these sessions has been awe-inspiring.

In 2023, Autistic Haven was fortunate to receive funding from UnLtd, which has been instrumental in sustaining these sessions. However, this funding is coming to an end, and we need your support to continue offering these vital programs.

Please consider donating to help us secure additional funding and keep these important sessions going for our families. Your generosity will ensure that Autistic children in our community continue to have a safe and creative space to thrive.

Parent feedback "Our family has thoroughly enjoyed the arts and crafts sessions at Autistic Haven. Janatha, the organiser, is incredibly warm and compassionate, creating a welcoming atmosphere for everyone. Our eleven-year-old, who has learning disabilities, eagerly counts down the days until the next session. He's really enjoying the arts and crafts activities, and despite his communication struggles, he was overjoyed when another child hugged him recently. For us as parents, it's been invaluable to connect with others who are in similar situations. Speaking to others who truly 'get it' makes a real difference."
