If you'd like to support a good cause, all while potentially securing yourself an impressive bundle of gifts just ahead of the holiday season, then we might just have you covered. Our sister site PC Gamer has partnered up with gaming charity SpecialEffect for an amazing giveaway, just in time for Christmas.

Founded in 2007, SpecialEffect is a UK-based charity that aims to bring the excitement of videogames to life for people with physical disabilities. For people like Charlie - a massive fan of games like Mario Kart and Paw Patrol - that work has already had a massive impact.

For instance, working with Charlie's dad, SpecialEffect has been able to loan Charlie custom equipment bigger buttons and an easier-to-use joystick to help him play games that his cerebral palsy made it difficult for him to enjoy.

Managing Editor, News

I'm GamesRadar's Managing Editor for news, shaping the news strategy across the team. I started my journalistic career while getting my degree in English Literature at the University of Warwick, where I also worked as Games Editor on the student newspaper, The Boar. Since then, I've run the news sections at PCGamesN and Kotaku UK, and also regularly contributed to PC Gamer. As you might be able to tell, PC is my platform of choice, so you can regularly find me playing League of Legends or Steam's latest indie hit.
