As most of you know, over the last few years, I've been helping people get together and raise funds for various charities, including our current charity of choice SpecialEffect, who do amazing work with those who have difficulties using the tech that we gamers take for granted daily.

To see more of their work, please watch the short video below, check out their website, check out our links too, you can donate in so many ways and not just with money, you could even volunteer for them!

This year is no different, and we are heavily into the first month, currently hitting over £300 from auctions online of various things donated by both companies and gamers alike!

I've added videos to help promote the items (not sure if that worked but hey, if I can do it, anyone can, right? and you can see the latest example below.

Yes, I make a complete fool of myself, but apparently people find this amusing?!

I am only asking for a donation of £1 per person reading this, (or £1.05 to cover the fees, darn this paying for stuff! That's your choice) and once we have the amount to go forward with the project (or close as possible, I can personally fund 20%

However, you do not go unrewarded - Any donation over £10 will receive an item FREE OF CHARGE as a thank you - Obviously, you'll have to supply your details when requested, email etc, and i'll contact you that way once the project is up, running and released.

In the VERY UNLIKELY EVENT of us not reaching our target ( I cant see it personally) all monies will go directly into the charity pot OR if we are close enough, the project may still go ahead? Sound good?

Then lets get raising the funds to put a smile on peoples faces, and get some pennies raised for a great cause!
