Charities benefit from Leamington games festival
A mini festival that focussed on the history of the gaming industry in Leamington has raised more than £1,000 for two charities.
Organisers of Backspace, a sub-festival to the Leamington Looks Back history festival, held collections and events to raise funds for SpecialEffect, which funds the creation of specially-adapted computer games for disabled people, and the Myton Hospices. The event hosted an exhibition, workshops, a parade and demonstrations in Regent Court for two weeks.
