Spectrum Gaming: creating a world where autistic young people can reach their true potential
Spectrum Gaming aims to create a world where every autistic child knows that who they are is ok, that they can be themselves whilst developing meaningful relationships and achieving their personal goals.
We do this by providing spaces (both online and face-to-face) where autistic young people feel safe and accepted and have opportunities to explore who they are amongst others with shared lived experiences.
Our advocacy projects have created a movement that aims to positively influence society and bring strategic change to meet the needs of autistic youth across the UK

SG is in high demand. In 2023:
a total of 1.26 million messages were sent from 1,600 young people across our Discord communities
our Minecraft server has had a total playtime of 3 years and 10 months
1,450 young people attended our in person events
In 2024, we're striving to continue provide those opportunities for young autistic people making vital connections.
Your donations will help us to fund our work with young autistic people, helping them to become more empowered, understanding and accepting of themselves!
