From the 10th - 17th July SpecialEffect was proud to be a part of the 27th Annual International Holiday Camp, which for the first time took place in Great Britain at Bluestone in Pembrokeshire, Wales.

The week long holiday included non-stop activities for the guests including adapted bike riding, scuba-diving, spa-sessions and horse riding amongst others.

SpecialEffect were invited by Gilly Orr, co-ordinator of the IT Hub on the site, to install and provide video games, consoles, access equipment and training for the 150+ disabled guests to enjoy.

Gilly stated of the week,"the 27th International Holiday Camp of the Order of Malta was occasionally victim to the British weather, but luckily the guests had the IT hut to enjoy. The consoles, games and adaptive technology kindly supplied by the team from SpecialEffect was invaluable. They were in use the entire time the hut was open and proved a real hit with guests and helpers alike."
