Gaming 14+ at Autism Inclusive

  • Are you aged 14 or older?
  • Do you enjoy gaming?
  • Interested in socialising and making friends?

Come along to our Gaming 14+ sessions, specifically for neurodiverse gamers aged 14 through to adult, whether diagnosed or not. We have a  mix of Xbox Series S consoles, Nintendo Switch handsets, Oculus VR headsets and retro arcade machines. Sessions run every Monday evening 7pm-9pm, £7.50 per gamer. Price includes a free drink from our café. We run a reward scheme; get your gaming card stamped at five sessions and get your sixth session for free!

Gaming 14+ is so much more than just a gaming session. The evening allows our young (or not so young) adults to attend an enjoyable activity in a friendly, safe and supportive environment; gaming with others or on their own. 

TERMS AND CONDITIONS (updated August 2024)

1. All attendees: when booking on, please expect an email from our gaming team prior to attending the session. For safeguarding purposes; to keep our staff and service users safe, and to make sure that each session is ace, we need to know the potential challenges and/or needs of those attending.
2. Gamers aged 17 and under: MUST be accompanied by an adult for the duration of the session.
3. Gamers aged 18 and over: independent drop off ONLY once our Gaming Lead (Chris Moloney-Ridsdale) has signed off – refer to point 1. Once signed off, contact details for carer/guardian must be left on site.
4. To attend Gaming 14+ you MUST book your space. Please do not come along if you have not booked.

Parents and carers have the option to stay in our lounge area, or once we’ve got to know our gamers, they can be dropped off and attend the session independently – please liaise with our Gaming Lead to discuss this option. Our sensory spaces are also available during the session, as is our outdoor area during the summer months and lighter evenings.
