We talk to Sigge Stengård and his father Martin about what it's like to live with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) and how gaming and esports makes a big difference in Sigge's life. We talk about their work in 'Para Esports', a non-profit esports organization for disabled gamers. “Different Is The New Cool” is their slogan as they want to give those who are disabled and different a voice and platform to engage with society, that so many of us take for granted. Find out how you can find out more and support Para Esports below and also if you make it to DreamHack winter 22 please stop and say hello!
