Our Future Health
Let’s prevent disease together
Atal afiechyd gyda’n gilydd
Helping everyone live longer and healthier lives
Helpu pawb i fyw’n hirach ac yn iachach
Today, millions of people spend many years of their life in poor health, suffering from common diseases such as dementia, cancer, diabetes, heart disease and stroke. Too often, we detect and treat diseases only when patients start showing symptoms. Our goal is to revolutionise the way we fight disease by collecting information from millions of volunteers across the UK. Together we can help researchers find ways to prevent, detect and treat diseases earlier.
Y dyddiau hyn, mae miliynau o bobl yn treulio blynyddoedd o’u bywydau mewn gwaeledd, yn dioddef o glefydau cyffredin fel dementia, canser, diabetes, clefyd y galon, a strôc. Yn rhy aml, dim ond pan fydd cleifion yn dechrau dangos symptomau fyddwn ni’n mynd ati i ganfod a thrin clefydau. Ein nod yw ceisio chwyldroi’r ffordd rydym yn mynd i’r afael ag afiechyd, drwy gasglu gwybodaeth gan filiynau o wirfoddolwyr ar hyd a lled y DU. Gyda’n gilydd, gallwn helpu ymchwilwyr i ddod o hyd i ffyrdd o atal, canfod a thrin clefydau yn gynt.

Everyone has something unique to give
Mae gan bawb rywbeth unigryw i’w gynnig
We’re building a diverse community of volunteers that truly reflects the UK’s population, so that we can identify differences in how diseases begin and progress in people from different backgrounds. By ensuring that a range of people take part in Our Future Health, we can make discoveries that benefit everyone.
Rydym ni’n datblygu cymuned amrywiol o wirfoddolwyr sy’n cynrychioli poblogaeth y DU yn deg, er mwyn i ni allu adnabod gwahaniaethau rhwng sut mae clefydau’n dechrau ac yn datblygu mewn pobl o wahanol gefndiroedd. Drwy sicrhau bod ystod eang o bobl yn cymryd rhan yn Our Future Health, gallwn ddarganfod pethau a fydd yn fuddiol i bawb.
