One thing Ukie has learnt from the pandemic is that virtual events are an important feature to our calendar. As an organisation which represents the whole of the UK, virtual events allow participants and attendees to join from multiple hubs and beyond – bringing with them a unique collection of speakers and topics.
Our first virtual Hub Crawl kicked off with Making Games for Mobile in 2023. Salman Shurie from Gesinimo Games started proceedings by unpicking the development process of his viral hit Tap Tricks.Salman explained where he went right, and perhaps just as interestingly, where he went wrong and evolved from what he had learned. Additionally, the term toy was used, because as Salman described, a toy should be something easily accessible and which comes naturally, therefore the UI had to reflect that. Listen to Salmans talk here.
Next up was Reedah El-Saie from Brainspark Games, a current member of our Barclays Mobile Growth programme. Reedah explore her background in law (and if you watched Daxs talk from last week at Brighton you may notice a theme emerging!) and how mobile is the ideal platform for educational games.Listen to Reedahs talk here.
Tristan Clark from Trailmix stepped up next with the story of their game Love & Pies and the importance of storytelling where the caf is literally and figuratively burnt down. Tristan explored how Trailmix wanted to make something nourishing in the mobile space, while staying within the bites of playtime that mobile players have become accustomed to.Listen to this in-depth talk from Tristan here.
Finally, we had Maria Sayans from ustwo games as our second Hub Crawl hero of the series. Maria discussed the story of ustwo games, the main challenges and opportunities present in the mobile space and how it may change going forward. A key takeaway was when she reflected on the rise of cosy games, thrilled that ustwo games have become part of that movement and how cosy and wholesome is the start of the path towards being meaningful. Accessible stories and gameplay that goes beyond entertainment for the player encouraging emotions, thinking, connection and perhaps future action.Listen to Marias fireside chat here.
As always, a big thank you to our overarching partner Barclays Games and eSports and to our virtual partner, AWS.
Up next is Newcastle see you there!
All of our Hub Crawls, both in-person and online can be found on our Eventbrite collection
Making Buildings Accessible for Divyang Jan: Maharashtra receives National Award for Institutional Empowerment 2022 under category Badhamukta Vatavaran Ke Srijan Mein Sarvshrestha Rajya Award

New Delhi / Mumbai, December 3, 2022
We know that an important component of empowering Persons with Disabilities or Divyang Jan is to make our physical environments accessible to them. An accessible physical environment benefits everyone, not just persons with disabilities. Under the Accessible India Campaign, it is envisaged that measures be undertaken to eliminate obstacles and barriers to indoor and outdoor facilities including schools, medical facilities, and workplaces. These would include not only buildings, but also footpaths, curb cuts, and obstacles that block the flow of pedestrian traffic.
As we celebrate International Day of Persons with Disabilities today, the state of Maharashtra has been recognized for the way it has been implementing Sugamay Bharat Abhiyan. The state has received the National Award for Institutional Empowerment 2022 under the category ‘Sugamya Bharat Abhiyan Ke Karyanvayan / Badhamukta Vatavaran Ke Srijan Mein Sarvshrestha Rajya’, at a function to celebrate “International Day of Persons with Disabilities”, held in New Delhi today.
So, what has the state done in order to have been chosen for this distinction? Under the Sugamya Bharat Abhiyan, the state has done access audit of a total of 180 Government buildings in four major cities of Maharashtra.
Out of these 180 buildings, proposals for making 142 buildings accessible have been sent. The retrofitting work has been completed in 137 buildings. Out of funds amounting to Rs. 21.67 crore, utilization certificate for Rs. 19.30 crore has been sent to the Central Government.
Out of remaining 38 buildings, the building plan and estimate for 15 buildings has been submitted.
An accessible government building is one, where persons with disabilities have no barrier in entering it and using all the facilities therein. This covers the built environment – services, steps and ramps, corridors, entry gates, emergency exits, parking – as well as indoor and outdoor facilities including lighting, signages, alarm systems and toilets.
Identifying accessible buildings requires annual accessibility audits that determine if a building meets agreed-upon standards. Once a building is deemed fully accessible, an annual audit is not necessary, but should be required for any proposed changes to the structure or systems contained therein. A full audit can then be done on a less frequent basis.
Standards of accessibility should be as consistent as possible with international standards, such as those of the ISO, taking into account the local context. In regards to the built environment, ISO 21542:2011, Building Construction – Accessibility and Usability of the Built Environment, delineates a set of requirements and recommendations concerning construction, assembly, components and fittings.
