The Digital Hub is a proposed online space within Spark Neurodiversity.

It is intended to be a place where members can:

• share stories and experiences
• make low-pressure social posts
• join groups and discussions
• connect around interests, identities, and life experiences
• contribute ideas and feedback
• participate in organisational guidance and community direction

The goal is to create something that is social, useful, welcoming, and shaped by members over time.

The Spark Neurodiversity Digital Hub may include features such as

Shouts

Quick, low-pressure posts for everyday things like:

• random facts
• small wins
• current hyperfocuses
• new purchases or deliveries
• “does anyone else do this?” moments
• funny or relatable observations

Not everything needs to be a deep post. Shouts would make it easier to share little moments without pressure.

Groups

Topic-based spaces around things like Autism, ADHD, AuDHD, sensory issues, diagnosis, work, study, relationships, burnout, hobbies, and local community.

Discussions

General conversation spaces for questions, support, ideas, and connection.

Guidance and Participation

Ways for members to help shape Spark Neurodiversity, provide input, take part in polls, and contribute to the direction of the community.

Events and Resources

Over time, the platform may also link members to events, peer spaces, resources, and practical opportunities connected to Spark Neurodiversity’s wider mission.

DISCLAIMER: The Spark Neurodiversity Digital Hub is currently a concept under exploration. Features, structure, access, and pricing may change as the project develops.

If we’re being honest, it’s because Spoony is closing. However in saying that for a long time we’ve thought a lot of neurodivergent people want more than a generic social media experience.

Many people are looking for spaces that feel:

• more welcoming
• more relevant
• more community-led
• less performative
• less endless-scroll
• more shaped around real needs and interests

We think there is room for a member-led digital community that focuses on belonging, voice, and practical value, not just content consumption.

The Spark Neurodiversity Digital Hub is being explored as something that could be:

Member-led

Members should have a real say in what the platform becomes.

Community-focused

The aim is to build connection and participation, not just another feed.

Organisation-linked

The Digital Hub would sit within a broader community project, rather than being a standalone app chasing growth for its own sake.

Useful as well as social

It should support not just social connection, but also ideas, feedback, events, resources, and practical opportunities.

Right now, this is an early concept.

We are exploring the idea, gathering interest, and listening to what people would want from a space like this before deciding what to build and how.

If the Spark Neurodiversity Digital Hub sounds like something you would like to be part of, we’d love to hear from you.
