Citizen Curators, funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund.

Citizen Curators was a Heritage Lottery funded project that worked with three Network Partners in Wales; Chepstow Mencap, Mencap Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire Mencap.

Between 2022 and 2024 the groups recorded the oral history of their organisations and curated exhibitions open to the public. Mencap Cymru administered the project and provided support to the groups from previous experience running heritage projects.

Our Social Networks, funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund.

Our Social Networks was a National Lottery Heritage Fund project. Inspired by the stories heard during the Hidden Now Heard project (below), we wanted to explore the differences in the social and romantic lives experienced by people with a learning disability in the years since the long-stay hospitals closed.

Over three years, the project collected over 40 oral histories between people with a learning disability and their friends or romantic partners. We also worked with four regional museums across Wales to create an accessible museum animation.

Hidden Now Heard, funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund.

Hidden now Heard, was a Heritage Lottery-funded project, which showcased the hidden heritage of people with a learning disability in Wales. Between 2014 and 2017 the project captured the hidden and often painful living memories of former residents and staff from six of Wales’ long-stay hospitals.

Working in partnership with the National History Museum, the project created exhibitions focusing on local long-stay hospitals by giving voice to former patients and staff, when previously they were silenced.

Mynd i'r afael â throsedd casineb - Cadw Cymru'n Ddiogel

Mae Cadw Cymru'n Ddiogel yn brosiect ar y cyd rhwng Mencap Cymru a Heddlu De Cymru, sydd wedi'i lunio i wneud pobl yn fwy ymwybodol o'u diogelwch personol, a'u hannog i roi gwybod i'r heddlu am drosedd (yn enwedig trosedd casineb) a chwilio am help os bydd ei angen arnyn nhw.

Mae'r cynllun yn caniatáu i bobl ag anabledd dysgu rannu gwybodaeth ynglŷn â'r ffordd maen nhw'n cyfathrebu â'r heddlu, yn ogystal â chael mynediad at linell ffôn un pwrpas petai arnyn nhw angen cysylltu â nhw.

Mae Mencap Cymru yn rhedeg gweithdai a chyflwyniadau i godi ymwybyddiaeth am ddiogelwch personol ac yn cefnogi pobl i gofrestru ar gyfer y cynllun.  Os hoffech chi gael mwy o wybodaeth, neu i wneud cais am weithdy, cysylltwch ag: information.wales@mencap.org.uk.
