For the past couple of years, our in person fundraising events have suffered greatly from the fact we can't carry out events in person. This is why we introduced Tabletop Radio, an online stream where we could raise funds for LGBTQUIA+ charities even if we couldn't all meet up in person.
This year, we have been able to get back to doing in person events. However, Tabletop Radio has been such a success, with 2021 raising over £2000 for Mermaids, that we're back at it for a third year in a row. This time with additional in person shenanigans!
The charity that was decided by the community poll this time around was GALOP - a charity that was formed around supporting LGBTQIA+ victims of various kinds of abuse. They have helplines, online forums and other support services for lots of things including domestic abuse and conversion therapy, and are looking for your money to help support that.
We'll have a full on schedule of segments from all over the tabletop games and roleplaying space - and a little bit adjacent to it - so there will be plenty to watch, join in with and donate money for. So head on over to our Twitch page and join us!
Also, if you are a company interested in sponsoring this event, have a look at our Tabletop Radio sponsorship details page.

£450 | Minecraft Bingo Stream | We'll play Minecraft Bingo on a bonus stream. Perhaps we'll play lockouts too. |
£600 | Ben's City of Mist One-Shot | We were going to have Ben run City of Mist during the stream, but he unfortunately couldn't make it. However, this means that we can instead run it on a special bonus stream! |
£800 | Genuine TEDTalks | In addition to the Karaoke talks during the stream, we will have a bonus stream where people write talks about things they are genuinely passionate about. What a novel idea! |
