Pathfinders Cymru

Pathfinders Cymru Encouraging inclusivity and community for all We recognise that to build a truly inclusive community, we must break down the barriers that keep people divided.

Welcome to Pathfinders Cymru, a dedicated charity committed to helping all children and young people grow, develop, and learn together to create a happy community based on inclusion, diversity, and belonging. That’s why we focus on creating activities and spaces where everyone, regardless of ability, can connect, grow, and thrive together. Based at Ystalyfera Community Centre, our hub offers a div

erse range of engaging activities and services designed to foster personal growth, social connection, and skill development. We provide a place where not only can every child and young person feel valued and involved, but also reach out and welcome the wider community. Through initiatives such as our community library service and a "Share Your Talent/Skills" approach, we actively engage with the broader community, encouraging everyone to contribute and participate. What We Offer

Inclusive Activities: We offer a variety of experiences that are open to all. From after-school clubs and tabletop gaming sessions to movie nights and school holiday playgroups, our activities are designed for everyone to enjoy, building a sense of belonging and mutual respect within the community. Empowering Volunteering Opportunities: We empower young people through meaningful volunteer roles, such as helping to run the community library, managing the sensory garden, or assisting in the kitchen during events. These opportunities help develop valuable life skills and promote a more integrated society. As an AQA centre, we also recognise and celebrate their skill development through the UAS certificates. Creative and Social Engagement: Our community library and cutting-edge digital hub, featuring 3D printing, give young people the chance to explore creativity and technology. We also offer popular social activities, such as stay-and-play sessions and gaming clubs, that nurture friendships and personal connections. Sensory Growing Garden: Our sensory growing garden provides a peaceful, engaging environment for children and young people to connect with nature, fostering both personal growth and well-being. At Pathfinders Cymru, we are dedicated to building a brighter, more inclusive future where every child and young person is given equal space to belong and participate fully in their community. Join us on this journey of empowerment, connection, and transformation.
