Famallama Minecraft Server for the Neurodiverse

Lisa Taft wrote to us as follows: My name is Lisa Taft I am a Mum of two young people with Autism.

I wanted to let you know about a service I provide which may be of help to some of your service users.

I run a Minecraft Server for the neurodiverse, called Famallama. I originally set it up for my children but its growing into something bigger at the moment. It is a safe online space, including a Minecraft server, discord chat server and a website with forums, all protected and whitelisted so only those that apply can have access and is completely free of charge.

It is closely monitored day and night, we have parent and young autistic moderators from both UK and USA so that there is always someone around should a player need help. We have plugins and mods on the server that have been specially designed for us. Such as a chat plugin where players can change the colour and divide the chat up, this is especially helpful for those with learning difficulties and dyslexia.

We provide everything that a lot of big servers provide but in a more protective way so that players don’t become overwhelmed. So if a player dies, such as if a creeper explodes in front of them, they do not lose their inventory. We can also protect their builds so that they cant be broken.

Its also nice for players to play along with likeminded people, with people that understand what they have to cope with from day to day and its been a pleasure watching those friendships flourish. This year we are organising an In real life meet up with parents and players in West Derby, players are coming from all around the country.

So I wanted to open this up to anyone in your service who you feel would benefit from this. I have attached our flyer and here is the link to our linktree https://linktr.ee/Famallama which contains links to our social media and our website. Should you need any further information please feel free to contact me.

Kindest regards

Lisa Taft.
