About Us

Being partnered with Humanists UK based in London, the Cardiff Humanist Group attempts to fulfil a need for personal contact etc for other Humanists, freethinkers, agnostics and other atheists, within
Cardiff and surrounding areas of South East Wales.

Founded in 1966, the Cardiff group is one of a large number of local Humanist groups across the UK that contribute to a grass roots foundation for a strong Humanist movement within the UK.

The group aims to encourage local atheists, agnostics, freethinkers etc to ‘come out’ as Humanists, and join the group, and/or Humanists UK and become part of a world wide movment.
