Hanes gweinyddol
The Christians Against Torture Movement (CAT)/Cristnogion yn Erbyn Poenydio was launched in 1981 by the Council of Churches for Wales and works closely with Amnesty International and other human rights groups. The Reverend Roy Jenkins, General Secretary of the movement, was instrumental in its foundation. CYTÛN has since taken over from the Council of Churches for Wales. It provides support for the families of prisoners of conscience through prayer and by sending Christmas cards to prisoners or their families. This was introduced in 1984. Vigils and services are arranged for Human Rights Day held on 10 December. A newsletter is published around three times a year. In 1984 the Council of Churches for Wales formed the movement Action by Christians Against Torture (ACAT) and in 1987 ten European countries and North America formed The International Federation of Action by Christians for the Abolition of Torture (FiACAT).
