Flip to win on 13 February at the Pancake Day Special charity gaming event in London.
AOC, MMD, TheRockinR, and SpecialEffect have come together to hold a rather tasty looking celebration on Pancake Day. The monitor manufacturers and two of the UK’s biggest gaming charities are inviting players and the charitably minded to head to Platform Shoreditch on Tuesday 13 February to enjoy sweet treats, take part in an infuriating Mario kart tournament, and win prizes. There’s also going to be an online activity too, so you can whip up your own treats and get into the spirit.
Anybody turning up between 6-10PM in London will find themselves with an opportunity to give to a couple of ve
ry worthy causes. SpecialEffect, a UK-based charity, is revolutionising the lives of people with physical challenges by utilising cutting-edge technology. you might have seen them at gaming conventions in the UK, or during charity live streams. By providing solutions like modified controllers and eye-tracking sensors they ensure everyone can enjoy the thrill of gaming.
TheRockinR was initially established around 2018 in memory of Reece Miree. It specializes in providing interactive Medical Gaming Carts to sick children and young people in hospitals across the United Kingdom & Ireland. Aside from the psychological benefits of just escaping into a fantasy world for a few hours, gaming can provide a link to online communities that some of us simply take for granted.
