About us
Welcome to Divergent Tabletop!
We’re a relaxed, welcoming, Cape Town-based group for anyone who is autistic, ADHD, neurodivergent—or just struggles with anxiety, socializing, or feeling out of place. Whether you’ve got a diagnosis, are self-discovering, or just want a space that feels easier to exist in—you’re welcome here.
We meet up to play board games, chat, and just hang out in a low-pressure, friendly space.
Don’t worry if you’ve never played a game before or feel awkward—we’ll happily explain how everything works, and you can join in when you feel comfortable. There’s no pressure to play if you’d rather just watch or chat, and nobody minds if you need a break or quiet time.
Our vibe is:
🎲 Casual games
💬 Friendly, patient people
💡 Neurodivergent-positive
🧩 Zero judgment—come as you are
If that sounds good to you, come by! We’d love to meet you.
