About us

SpecialEffect enables people with severe physical disabilities to use technology for communication and leisure, playing video games when they otherwise wouldn't be able to using whichever part(s) of their body that work best. We assess a person's needs and adapt technology to harness whatever controlled movement they have, and create bespoke gaming setups to enable them to play to the best of their abilities. Being included hugely benefits mental wellbeing and quality of life, bringing much needed independence, fun and escapism.

Our support is completely free of charge and is for life, particularly important for when things change and need to be adapted, which is why your donations are so integral to the continuation of our work. 

Thank you for taking the time to visit our page and best of luck to all of our runners!
