Game Therapy UK
We are a new and innovative charity (recipients of the Ian Livingstone Innovation in Gaming Award 2023) and use cooperative Games as an Aid to combat social isolation and improve mental and physical wellbeing in vulnerable groups across the UK.
Our team of volunteer psychologists, recovery workers, educators, and of course gamers, use role-playing games (such as Dungeons & Dragons) as they are fun and self-motivating.
The positive effect of using these games on our vulnerable clients has been profound. Funding from GamesAid supports projects for autistic young people, young people experiencing homelessness, with Special Educational Needs, life limiting chronic disease, and gender identity issues.
We are the UK authority on therapeutic gaming and, as well as hosting the UK Academic Conference of Therapeutic Gaming, our work has been presented at International Health Conferences, and featured in the media including The New Scientist magazine and BBC radio.
