Our Beginning
Onyx-gorge was founded in 2011 by a group of financial professionals who recognised a significant gap in accessible money education. While banks offered products and advisers catered to wealthy clients, everyday families had few places to learn fundamental financial skills.
What began as monthly workshops in a community centre has grown into a structured educational programme serving hundreds of Cardiff residents annually. We remain committed to our founding principle: financial knowledge should not be a privilege reserved for those who can afford expensive advisers.
Our curriculum has evolved alongside the financial landscape, incorporating digital banking, cryptocurrency awareness, and modern investment vehicles while never losing sight of the core principles that help families build lasting security.
Our Values
The principles that guide everything we teach
Accessibility
Financial education belongs to everyone regardless of income level or prior knowledge. We structure our pricing and course materials to welcome learners from all backgrounds.
Practicality
Theory matters less than application. Every concept we teach connects directly to decisions our students will face in their daily financial lives.
Independence
We sell education, not financial products. Our instructors have no incentive to recommend specific investments, ensuring advice remains unbiased.
Long-term Thinking
Quick wins and get-rich schemes have no place in responsible financial planning. We teach sustainable approaches that build wealth gradually and securely.
