Ymateb nad yw'n Argyfwng\ Non-Emergency Response

Oes angen i chi siarad â'r heddlu ond nid oes angen ymateb brys arnoch? Gallwch roi gwybod am fater drwy ein gwefan https://www.heddlu-de-cymru.police.uk, neu ffonio 101. Gallwch ddefnyddio 101 i roi gwybod am achosion nad ydynt yn rhai brys i unrhyw heddlu yng Nghymru a Lloegr. Mewn argyfwng, ffoniwch 999 bob amser.

Do you need to speak to the police but don’t require an emergency response? You can make a report via our website https://www.south-wales.police.uk, or call 101. 101 can be used to report a non-emergency to any force in Wales and England. In an emergency always dial 999.

Cymorth Iaith Gymraeg\Welsh Language Support

Mae Heddlu De Cymru yn croesawu derbyn gohebiaeth yn Gymraeg a Saesneg. Byddwn yn ateb gohebiaeth a dderbynnir yn Gymraeg yn Gymraeg ac ni fydd gohebu yn Gymraeg yn arwain at oedi.

South Wales Police welcomes receiving correspondence in Welsh and English. Any correspondence received in Welsh will be answered in Welsh and corresponding in Welsh will not lead to a delay in responding.
