Pathfinders Cymru is a lived-experience-led charity working to build a community where every young person, regardless of learning ability, diagnosis, or background, feels included, empowered, and valued.

​

We were founded by a team of neurodivergent trustees and parents who saw the same gap again and again: young people with learning challenges were being left behind, isolated from their communities, and shut out of opportunities to thrive. We decided to change that.​

​

We reject segregation in all forms.

 

Inclusion for us means more than just physical access. It means creating shared experiences, spaces that feel safe and joyful, and environments where difference is embraced as a strength.

​

We focus especially on those often overlooked: young people experiencing EBSA, anxiety, or neurodiversity-related barriers.  We also aim to help learners not supported by social services or those excluded from post-16 options and families navigating life outside of mainstream pathways.

​​

As we grow, we continue to listen, adapt, and collaborate with schools, home-educating families, third sector partners, and the young people themselves. Why, because inclusion isn’t something we deliver to people, it’s something we build with together.
