Our History

  • Formed in 2025 by three experienced neurodivergent professionals, Kuria Cave brings together decades of work in neuroinclusion, creative wellbeing, and community advocacy. While newly established as a group, our founders have deep roots in Newport’s support networks and have led change in schools, health, and public services.

Areas of Operation

  • Wales: Newport

Beneficiaries

  • Children / Young People

    Children access creative workshops that build emotional literacy, confidence, and self-regulation. The space offers calm, supportive experiences that help prevent future mental health issues.

  • People with Disabilities

    Neurodivergent and disabled people benefit from a sensory space designed for regulation, wellbeing, and safety—helping them engage more fully in community life. Our space will increase footfall within the city centre as we provide a safe haven.

  • Adults

    Neurodivergent adults gain a safe, inclusive space to manage sensory needs, access mental health support, and feel part of a connected, understanding community.

  • Community

    Kuria Cave strengthens the local community by reducing isolation, supporting wellbeing, and promoting understanding between neurodivergent and non-ND residents enabling communities to come together to enjoy Newport's cultural activities.

  • Unemployed

    We help ND people access and stay in work, while supporting children to remain in school—helping parents gain employment and families break long-term cycles of poverty.

  • People in poverty

    By offering work opportunities and helping reduce workplace barriers for neurodivergent people and those with poor mental health, we aim to improve access to income and long-term financial stability.

  • Marginalised or vulnerable groups

    Our space supports all neurodivergent people, those with poor mental health, and families at risk of exclusion. We welcome intersectional identities and work with community groups to offer inclusive, affirming support and safe access to help.

  • Other Charities or Voluntary Bodies

    We offer training on neuroaffirming, sensory-friendly environments to help other groups make their services more accessible to neurodivergent people. Other groups are also able to make use of our sensory friendly space.

Our Vision for a better future

  • Our vision is to create inclusive spaces in Newport where neurodivergent people feel safe, supported, and valued. Through advocacy, sensory and mental health support, and creative wellbeing, we aim to reduce suicidality, support access to education, help people into work, and embed neuroinclusion in community life.

Our goals to make a difference

  • ⁠Neurodivergent people access a sensory regulation space that enables greater participation in Newport’s shops, events, education, and work.

  • Poor mental health and suicidality are reduced through a safe, inclusive space offering connection, peer support, and mental health first aid.

  • Children and parents/carers build emotional literacy and resilience through creative wellbeing workshops led by a qualified arts educator.

  • ⁠Parents and carers of neurodivergent children receive advocacy, peer support, and advice—both in person and online—to navigate services and systems.

  • Newport becomes more inclusive as community leaders receive neuroinclusion training and embed sensory-friendly practices into their spaces.
