We spoke to Grant Morgan, creative director behind Spellathon on behalf of Mencap.
The UK’s largest charity supporting people with a learning disability are launching a worldwide championship aimed at improving spelling.
Mencap have set up Spellathon, an online competition to take place starting next Monday (the 21st May) for a week. For the first time, 3D animated technology will be used to raise funds as well as education.
The voice of Stephen Fry will be used online to guide users through a series of games which can be played on mobiles, tablets, PC’s or even on a classroom whiteboard.
25% of all money raised will remain with the schools the children go to.
