Story

🎮 GameBlast24, a 24-hour gaming marathon dedicated to raising funds for two incredible charities: The William Merritt Centre and Special Effect.

These charities empower disabled gamers by showing them how they can game using adapted controllers, alternative joysticks, and switches, leveling the playing field for all.

This year's event is held in memory of a beloved disabled gamer Colin McDonnell who recently passed away.

Let's honor his legacy and make gaming accessible for everyone.

Support us in creating a more inclusive gaming community. Donate today and be part of the change!
