Tony, an avid lifelong gamer born without any forearms, is now using his feet to help him get the best out of his gaming favourites like #Forza, thanks to a foot-enhanced custom gaming setup devised by our specialist assessment team.

Tony has been gaming all his life, but his disability makes it impossible for him to use the bumpers and triggers effectively on standard modern controllers. It’s severely restricted the enjoyment, range and competitiveness of his gaming, but a pre-COVID visit to SpecialEffect’s gaming room and the continuing help of our specialist assessment team, along with the loan of the custom gaming setup, has reopened effective access to all genres of gaming for him. And, just as importantly for Tony, he can compete with - and beat - his son again!

Many thanks to Xbox, Turn 10 Studios, Playground Games, Al Compton, and our Specialist Occupational Therapists Nomi and Cam for making this video possible. Thanks also to Steve at GAME Telford for connecting us with Tony.

SpecialEffect is a UK-based charity that helps people with disabilities to play video games. Find out more at www.specialeffect.org.uk
