Story

We know that now more than ever, gaming has been a vital lifeline for many people to create and maintain connections with others and we would like our brand new fundraising event to celebrate this.

The theme for World MS Day is all about 'connections' so we encourage everyone to come together and 'connect' by playing games over the Bank Holiday weekend 29 - 31 May 2021 and raise vital funds for MS-UK, a small national charity dedicated to empowering people with multiple sclerosis (MS) to live healthier and happier lives.

Single players or teams of friends and family can get involved. The challenge is entirely up to you - it can be a 24 hour gaming marathon, 24 hours gaming split and tagged between friends, 24 games played over the weekend - it is completely your game!

#PlayforMSUK and make every minute of gaming count, connect with friends and family, and have lots of fun! Together we can raise at least £3,000 for MS-UK.

£3,000 is enough to fund MS-UK's helpline for over a week or fund over 60 counselling sessions providing vital information and emotional support to anyone affect by MS. We are also building are new MS-UK online service which include online exercise classes, chair yoga, mindfulness, information workshops and peer pods, to allow more people to connect with each other.

Thank you so much for your support! Warm up those fingers, controllers ready and game on!
