Story
Everyone Can is a Charity that uses the power of assistive technology to help disabled people. We provide free assessments to individuals with disabilities to establish exactly how their disability effects them performing everyday tasks and then match technology that is either designed or can be adapted to help them achieve those tasks.
We also hold accessible gaming sessions for both children and adults with disabilities at our centre using the most up-to-date equipment and alternative control methods for anyone who needs them. For gamers with Neurodiverse disabilities such as autism it is about getting them gaming together, gaining confidence and making friends! Then for gamers with physical disabilities who struggle to use a regular gaming controller they have assistive gaming stations where by using assistive technology they can get them gaming the easiest way for them, whether it be with head movements, their elbows or even eye movements! Its all about ensuring everyone can game!
We recently asked some of our parents who bring their children to our gaming sessions what they like most about visiting us, and their answers speak volumes:
Love everything about Everyone Can. My son loves coming! He has improved his confidence and feelings about other people liking him, has something to look forward to, somewhere he can relax and be himself. It just makes me happy to see him so happy. Thank you!
So if you love gaming and want to help disabled people game together then get involved and make a difference!
