We’re changing the lives of people across Wales, but we can’t do it alone. There are many ways you can support Hijinx – through one-off or regular donations, corporate support, community fundraising or becoming a volunteer.
As a registered charity, we need money. We rely on the generosity of individuals, trust and foundations, businesses, and our family of amazing volunteers to pioneer, produce and promote opportunities in the arts and creative industries for people with learning disabilities and/or autism. COVID-19 only worsened the levels of social isolation and loneliness that learning disabled and/or autistic people already faced. As we emerge post-COVID, it is vital that we drive opportunities for learning disabled people in the arts and society and prevent more barriers being erected in the rush to rebuild.
How you can support us
In whatever way you choose, your support is creating life changing experiences for both participants and audiences; creating a world where the arts and society are fully inclusive for learning disabled and/or autistic people.

One day a week she is really happy and has something to look forward to. Up until she joined she hadn’t had anything like this. It’s the one night she goes out and socialises. It’s made a huge difference.
