Dear friends,

I’m thrilled to invite you to my annual charity livestream, where—now for the fifth year running—I’ll be fundraising for the amazing organisation SpecialEffect. They transform the lives of people with physical disabilities worldwide through cutting‑edge technology. Their core mission is to maximise joy and improve quality of life by helping everyone play video games in a way that works for them—and that’s just the start! You can read more about their brilliant work at the link below.

This year we'll be talking do Dan Govier from Fleetyard Studios - the makers of Starship Simulator.

We also have lots of cool prizes to be won! Check the info below :)

When & where

Saturday, 19 July 2025
09:00 BST (10:00 CET)
Twitch: twitch.tv/roots_rat

I’ll be live for at least 12 hours—maybe the full 24, if stamina allows! Expect interviews, games, giveaways, a raffle, and plenty of fun.

How to help

Share this announcement far and wide.

Donate via JustGiving: https://www.justgiving.com/page/cheese25

This event happens only because of our fantastic community. Whether you spread the word, chip in cash or raffle prizes, or just hang out and endure my endless rambling—thank you from the bottom of my heart. You’re awesome!

Our track record

Across previous CHEESE streams we’ve raised £5,809.57 in total. Last year you smashed the £2,000 target. Times are tougher now, so this year we’re aiming for a “modest” £1,000—but who knows, maybe we’ll break the record again. Let’s find out on Saturday!

I'm (almost) alive! Thank you to everyone that supported me in any way yesterday, be it a donation, just watching or spreading the news about the event :)

We managed to exceed £1500 raised for the 4th year in a row, and we made it into Top 25% of all Just Giving campaigns! You're all amazing and your donations will bring smiles and open doors to previously inaccessible world of video games entertainment to many people.

Massive thank you on behalf on SpecialEffect :)
