UK-based charity SpecialEffect put fun and inclusion back into the lives of people with physical disabilities by helping them to play video games. There's no one-size-fits-all way of doing this, so their specialist assessment teams match or modify technology to create and loan truly personalised gaming control setups, enabling people of all ages to play the games they love, to the very best of their abilities. They share everything they learn through advice and accessibility resources for players and developers across the globe, and all of their support is completely free of charge. They simply aim to do whatever it takes to raise the quality of life for as many disabled gamers as possible all over the world.
The main goal of Safe In Our World is to create and foster worldwide mental health awareness within the video game industry; to eliminate the stigma surrounding mental health, to make it a natural topic of discussion, and to promote the dialogue surrounding mental health so people are not afraid to reach out for help if they need it. Safe In Our World also aims to assist people who don’t suffer from mental health issues in understanding these afflictions as well as identifying symptoms, their signs, and any related challenges so they are better equipped to help others in a proactive and educated manner.
Blueprint for All work with young people and communities to create an inclusive society in which everyone, regardless of their race, ethnicity or background can thrive. Their programmes provide inspiration, opportunities and support to talented young people, enabling them to succeed. They work with innovative organisations and businesses to address disparity of opportunity, so everyone’s talents, skills and perspectives are valued. They also empower communities across the UK to tackle inequality and discrimination for long term, sustainable change. Blueprint for All don’t just believe in a fair and equitable future, they’re making it happen.
