The A Game socials are in-person events that are held at venues in County Durham. Whether you’re a retro gamer, a total beginner, a tabletop titan, into crafting, or you're just looking to try something new, you’re warmly welcome.
Come as you are, meet like-minded folks, and be part of a friendly, and inclusive community. We provide low cost activities for young people to access independently or with friends or family at their own pace. We provide opportunities to be in neurodivergent positive spaces, (inclusive & sensory considered) where young people can be themselves and chose to simply do some activities or to join in with peers or staff/volunteers.

Board games are like tiny adventure machines you can unfold on a table. Whether you’re trading routes in Ticket to Ride, building settlements in Catan, or trying to identify the Evil Mordred in Avalon, you’re practicing teamwork, strategy, communication, and creative thinking without even realising it. Games can help young people, build confidence, patience, and problem solving skills in a way that’s genuinely fun. It’s also much easier to socialise when everyone’s focused on a shared goal or challenge. The game gives you something to talk about, laugh about, and react to together, which takes the pressure off starting conversations. Instead of worrying about what to say, you’re rolling dice, making plans, and celebrating wins and loses as a team. 🎲
