"Social isolation and loneliness have serious health consequences.

Their health risks are comparable to smoking daily, excessive drinking and obesity."

Welcome to All-Access Games
Building Connections Through Tabletop Gaming: A Lifeline for Those Facing Social Isolation and other societal barriers.

Our Mission

We understand the profound impact of social isolation - all of our team members/volunteers have lived experience of social isolation, mental health issues or other disability. Through tabletop gaming, we aim to bring people together, foster meaningful connections, and provide essential peer support. Our gaming sessions offer a safe, welcoming space for individuals to connect, share their experiences, and find companionship.

What We Offer
• Regular gaming sessions throughout the week
• Tabletop, board and card games for semi-structured activity
(no awkward introductions or small-talk required!)
• Gaming materials are provided -you don't need to bring or buy your own
• Everyone is welcome (under 18s will need a guardian)
• All team members/volunteers have lived experience of social isolation, mental health issues or other disability.

You're not alone.
• No referral or commitment required- just turn up to our sessions when you feel up to it.
• We're a not-for-profit organisation, seeking to improve mental health and overall life outcomes.
