Story
Thousands of people want to experience the fun and inclusion of video games, but their disabilities stop them from joining in. We're taking part in the UK’s biggest annual charity gaming marathon to help SpecialEffect level the playing field for everyone.
This amazing charity finds new ways for individuals with physical disabilities to play, using technology ranging from modified joypads to eye-control systems. Donations go towards funding the expertise, assessments, equipment and lifelong support that will bring joy, self-confidence and a degree of independence into hundreds of lives.
We're doing our bit by taking part a 24-hour marathon stream from 08:00 GMT on Saturday, 27 February 2021 - along with a few other surprises! All donations received will go directly to SpecialEffect, helping them achieve their £100,000 target and continue their awesome work.
