Games changing lives
We’re putting fun and inclusion back into the lives of physically disabled people across the world.
Can we help? DonateWhat we do
We want everyone to be included. That’s why we’re transforming the lives of physically disabled people right across the world through the innovative use of technology. At the heart of our work is our mission to maximise fun and quality of life by helping people control video games to the best of their abilities, but that’s just the start.
