Raise your Game!

23 October, 2020

Raise your Game!

Want to bring tabletop gaming to all the family plus friends who might not have played before and do some good?

Then this October and beyond is the perfect chance for us to get involved and raise your game.

We spoke to the very lovely volunteer ambassadors from Dementia UK about how they are using tabletop games to Raise their Game.

Hobby Games were chosen for their fundraising campaign as they transcend the boundaries between different ages, culture and ability and are also potentially playable by people with dementia as an engaging and social past time.

There is also the fact that increasingly game play seems to boost the brain and keep it younger.

We spoke to them on our Twitch channel which you can find on Facebook.

So here's how you can Raise Your Game:

Raise your Game is the perfect occasion to bring people together, either socially distanced, virtually or within your household.

You can play your favourite games and have fun, whilst raising vital funds to help our dementia specialist Admiral Nurses support more families facing dementia.

Raise your Game is taking place in October, but you can hold an event on any date that suits you.
