At GameSpec, we've created a social space for neurodiverse individuals to escape isolation and misunderstanding while being supported to enjoy their specialised interests.
At GameSpec, we've created a social space for neurodiverse individuals to escape isolation and misunderstanding while being supported to enjoy their specialised interests.
We run awesome social sessions in an inclusive, sensory-friendly and calm environment focused around the special interest of gaming - whether it's computer gaming, table top RPG's (D&D), board games, Lego, collectibles, Pokémon, Warhammer painting and group outings.
Our sessions are facilitated by peer support workers. Everyone can be themselves here, make new friends and have an amazing time! We embrace all identities and are dedicated to making people feel welcome and safe.
We are for teens, young adults and young at heart. Our clients range in age from 12 up to 55 at present.
We created GameSpec because we recognise the need for inclusive social spaces where autistic and other neurodivergent-identifying people can come together.
It's a place to connect, make friends, practice essential social skills without feeling 'othered' AND have fun doing it.
Our team is made up of people with lived experience of autism and ADHD, carers of those with autism and ADHD, and also people who are massive gaming nerds that just want to share that joy with others.
We are here to ensure that every visit to GameSpec is affirming and enjoyable.
Nothing short of a neurodivergent sanctuary. Staff are super friendly and helpful. Oh, and it's exclusive to people on NDIS, so you know that you'll be in a safe place with people like you! "You already know I'm obsessed with it. I can't get enough."
Super amazing, super friendly almost feels like home
I have found GameSpec my new favourite place to attend. It is the first place I have been to where I felt welcomed and accepted, just the way I am, an older person who has Autism.
Get in touch and one of our friendly team will be in contact shortly.
Thank you for contacting us.
A member of our team will get back to you as soon as possible.
Have a great day!
