Aubergine cafe supporters

Screenshot of a Facebook post from Aubergine reading “Thank you so much to everyone who came to offer help and advice at our community action meeting yesterday. It is so encouraging to see the community come out to support us like this. We'll keep you updated on any important developments. Lots of love, gratitude and solidarity from the Aubergine Team.”

When Aubergine, a cafe run by and for neurodivergent people in Cardiff, got notice of an increase in their rent that put the future of the cafe at risk, the community soon got together to support them.

They held a community action meeting which was well attended to discuss possible options and quickly put together a fundraising open mic night too.

The power of community is huge and a true demonstration of the power of small kindnesses.
