Pwy Ydyn Ni?

Pob blwyddyn, mae miloedd o bobl yn y DU yn wynebu’r llys ar eu pen eu hunain. Heb gymorth, mae’n rhaid i unigolion gynrychioli eu hunain wrth fynd trwy un o gyfnodau anoddaf eu bywyd, megis wynebu ysgariad, ceisio sicrhau gofal eu plant, neu wynebu cael eu troi allan o’u cartref. Mae gormod o bobl yn cael eu gadael mewn penbleth, wedi’u gorfodi i lywio system gyfreithiol gymhleth ar eu pennau eu hunain

Rydym yn sefyll ochr yn ochr â phobl sy'n teimlo nad oes ganddynt unman arall i droi. Rydym yn darparu gwasanaeth am ddim ledled Cymru a Lloegr, gan gynnig cymorth ac arweiniad cyn, yn ystod, ac ar ôl achos llys. Rydym yn sicrhau nad yw pobl sy'n wynebu'r llys ar eu pennau eu hunain, gan archwilio'r agweddau ymarferol ac yn eu paratoi i wynebu'r llys ag urddas a hyder.

Gall cymorth ein gwirfoddolwyr gael effaith uniongyrchol ar ganlyniad achos ein cleientiaid ac ar weddill eu bywydau. Wedi’i deilwra i bob unigolyn, mae ein gwirfoddolwyr yn darparu cymorth eang, megis cynnig gwybodaeth cyfreithiol, esbonio beth fyddai’n digwydd yn y llys, helpu pobl i lenwi ffurflenni cyfreithiol cymhleth, a’u cefnogi wrth iddynt gynllunio’r hyn yr hoffent ei ddweud wrth y barnwr.

Credwn fod gan bawb yr hawl i wrandawiad teg, ac rydym yn credu y dylai'r unigolion a'r teuluoedd sy'n chwilio am gymorth yn teimlo eu bod yn cael eu gwrando a’u deall. Ni ddylai unrhyw un wynebu'r llys ar ei ben ei hun.

Ymrwymedig: Rydym yn deall bod ein gwaith yn bwysig, ac mae ein tîm medrus wedi’u hymrwymo i ddarparu gwasanaeth o ansawdd uchel.

• Helpu cleientiaid i gynllunio’r hyn yr hoffent ei ddweud yn y llys
• Mynychu gwrandawiadau llys gwyneb yn wyneb/o bell

Mae profiad cyfreithiol yn werthfawr, ond nid yw'n hanfodol. Rydym yn chwilio am bobl sydd â'r empathi, y menter, a'r ymrwymiad i ddod o hyd i ddatrysiad. Nid ydym yn cynnig cyngor cyfreithiol, ac ble bynnag y gallwn, byddwn yn cyfeirio cleientiaid at sefydliad perthnasol arall.

Sut byddwn yn eich cefnogi

Rydym yn elusen sy’n cael ei pharchu, ac mae gwirfoddolwyr yn chwarae rôl allweddol yn ein gwaith. Byddwch yn gweithio gyda'r Rheolwr Gwasanaeth a fydd yn rhoi hyfforddiant i chi.

At St John Ambulance, we are looking to develop our volunteering offer and become an even more integral part of our communities through delivering community first aid and education. 

We need people who have a passion for helping others, care about their communities and want to make a difference, supporting them to become safe and more resilient by sharing your first aid skills and knowledge. As a Community First Aider, you’ll deliver first aid to those in need through local events, as well as provide education to the public so that the ripple effect of First Aid grows.

Through supporting the growth of community partnerships, you will bring people along to our cause, growing our membership and fundraising base and spreading the message that First Aid Saves Lives. 

Through volunteering as a Community First Aider, you’ll get a huge sense of satisfaction and pride delivering an essential service. It’s great for you, great for your community and great for our nation, and it requires only a small commitment of your time. 

We will make sure you will have access to a proper induction to volunteering with SJA and the training you need for the role you take on. We will also provide you with a supportive environment while you are volunteering with us. Information about our volunteer roles are included in the role descriptions. What you can expect from SJA, and what we expect from those who volunteer with us, is included in the volunteer charter.

Rolling interview dates starting 22/07/25 to be confirmed with candidates on an individual basis.

Successful candidates will be given the option to attend any of the three networks in Wolverhampton. Their induction and welcome event will be undertaken at the meeting night of the network that best suits them.

Closing date for these opportunities is: 29/06/2025

A New Icon

We level the playing field for athletic sponsorships enabling more athletes to reach their full potential.

Large brands and agencies dominate the sports sponsorship marketplace. As a result, many athletes, including female, disabled, and LGBTQ+ athletes from various ethnicities or lower socioeconomic backgrounds, are often left without sponsors and access to what they need to reach their potential.
In addition, many sponsors need help finding and developing a genuine connection with an athlete, which leads to issues connecting with their audiences. There is no way to search for sponsors or athletes directly without involving costly agencies. Transparency and self-management are crucial in democratising the marketplace. The opportunity to make this sector more equitable is now.

We have built an innovative self-managed athlete-sponsorship platform focused on unique connections between sponsors and athletes. Sponsors, athletes, and fans can sign-up. Athletes create a public profile page with information and media about themselves. Sponsors create campaigns which athletes & teams search and apply for. In addition, all users can follow athletes who post on our social feed. Negotiation steps are in-built before the contract is confirmed; secure payment is taken for the sponsorship amount and held securely. As milestones are reached, an athlete's payment percentage is released, protecting both sides. our latest build has developed our campaign area, where marketing assets are now auto-generated in the brand and athlete voice through AI and ML implementation. Once a campaign has gone live, there is now a dashboard that shows its engagement success and delivers the data points you would expect to understand for each campaign alongside a social value calculation that maps to the SDGs and other CSR markers. Our UI and UX are updated to ensure the right data is captured and the user journey is streamlined. This new release will go live in January 2025 when we have secured our IP and started to build out our team. Our model enables the fair distribution of power.
