Get your Game On! at our Children in Need esports fundraiser on campus this Friday.

BBC Children in Need is uniting the gaming world on Friday 10 November 2023, when gamers will join forces to help raise money for the charity and highlight the positive impact of video games.

At Staffordshire University we’re hosting a fundraiser in our specialist Esports Hub on campus where staff and students are invited to come and play games made by our very own Games Development Department!

Game On! is raising awareness about the benefits that responsible gaming can have and its power to unite people through play. Money raised will help to fund charities all over the UK who are using video games to support children.

Staffordshire University’s Game On! fundraiser takes place in T204/5, Beacon Building, on the University’s College Road site in Stoke-on-Trent from 7-9pm
