Story

Thanks for considering donating! For milestones rewards, please see bottom of this story section.

Dan is hosting a gamejam during a 9 day period, encouraging people to create games in a non-stressful environment whilst raising money for SpecialEffect. https://itch.io/jam/honest-jam-5

This years charity really makes a difference to peoples lives. SpecialEffect enable severely disabled people to use technology for communication and leisure (video games!) using whichever part(s) of their body that work best - chin, foot, finger, toe, eyes, knee or head control; we’ll find a way. It’s so important that everyone can join in with family & friends, to be included and not left out. All too often disability leaves a person isolated. Being included hugely benefits mental wellbeing and quality of life – bringing much needed independence, fun and escapism.

I know the current economic climate is impacting us all in different ways. If you want to support but money is tight, you can still help a bunch by hanging out in the Twitch live streams (https://www.twitch.tv/honestdangames) and sharing this fundraising page with friends / family via social media.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
