Introducing… The Thabani Project

Why The Thabani Project?

Seeing children and families struggling because of a lack of knowledge of and support for neurodiversity and mental health needs is heartbreaking. Tired of witnessing suffering, I reached a crisis point where I had to make a choice: be consumed by sadness or use the pain as fuel for change.

After taking part in the Equal Power Equal Voice mentoring programme 2022/2023 and the Plan for Peace Changemakers in Turbulent Times programme in Spring 2023, I started The Thabani Project to help raise awareness, reduce stigma and connect families to a support network that will help them thrive.

18 – 24 March 2024 is Neurodiversity Celebration Week

I will be posting on The Thabani Project’s Instagram and Facebook accounts every day this week sharing about the inspiration for this project and the work I’ll be doing this year.

Family Wellbeing Workshop

On Friday 22nd December 2023, The Thabani Project will be holding a free Family Workshop at the Grand Multicultural Hub in Swansea city centre.

It’s a chance for families to share holiday survival skills and learn about some of the reasons children (and parents) may struggle during the holidays and how to have a calmer, happier holidays and return to school.

We’ll be playing games and making visual timetables. Come and join in the fun.
