“For years, I have been making use of the hall to hold community surgeries because of its central location.

Mae Neuadd Eglwys y Santes Fair yn nhref Conwy wedi’i gweddnewid yn ganolfan gymunedol well nag erioed am gost o £350,000.
Derbyniodd y prosiect £249,999 gan Lywodraeth Geidwadol y DU drwy’r Gronfa Ffyniant Gyffredin, ochr yn ochr â chyllid ychwanegol gan Esgobaeth Bangor (£70,000), Cronfa Gwynt y Môr (£25,000), a Chyngor Tref Conwy (£10,000).
Wrth siarad ar ôl ymweld â'r Neuadd, dywedodd Janet:
"Hoffwn ddiolch i bawb sydd wedi bod yn rhan o'r gwaith trawsnewid gwych hwn.
"Ers blynyddoedd, rydw i wedi bod yn defnyddio'r neuadd i gynnal cymorthfeydd cymunedol oherwydd ei lleoliad canolog.
"Mae'r digwyddiadau sydd ar y gweill yn cynnwys ffeiriau crefftau, arddangosfeydd, gweithdai creadigol, dosbarthiadau lles, cerddoriaeth a pherfformiadau.
"Mae gan y lleoliad bellach gegin led-fasnachol newydd, ac mae disgwyl iddo wasanaethu fel sylfaen hanfodol ar gyfer rhaglen banc bwyd Bags of Love, sy'n darparu cefnogaeth i deuluoedd ac unigolion mewn angen yn y gymuned leol.
"Mae'n galonogol gweld lleoliadau fel hyn yn mynd o nerth i nerth. Da iawn pawb!".
