Community Care Gaming

What is Community Care Gaming?

Community Care Gaming (formerly ESG Gaming) is a not-for-profit Community Interest Company (CIC) founded in 2021 in London. The organisation uses virtual reality, esports, and gaming as tools to tackle loneliness, social isolation, and dementia risk reduction. Their flagship product is "The Dome," a virtual world platform designed to bring communities together through immersive digital experiences.

By harnessing the power of gaming technology for social good, Community Care Gaming bridges the gap between digital entertainment and community health, creating accessible virtual spaces where people can connect, socialise, and engage in activities that support cognitive wellbeing.

Where will I work?

Community Care Gaming is based in London, United Kingdom. The organisation operates a hybrid working model, combining office-based collaboration with remote working flexibility. Given the nature of the work — developing virtual platforms and running community programmes — much of the day-to-day work can be done remotely, with in-person time focused on events, demonstrations, and team collaboration.

What is the team like?

With approximately 3 employees, Community Care Gaming is a small but passionate team united by a shared mission to use gaming and technology for social impact. The team combines expertise in gaming technology, community development, and health and wellbeing to deliver innovative programmes that make a real difference in people's lives.

As a CIC, the organisation attracts people who are motivated by purpose and social impact rather than profit, creating a values-driven culture focused on making gaming a force for good.

Work-Life Balance

Community Care Gaming operates a 4-day working week at 32 hours with full pay. The organisation holds Gold accreditation from the 4 Day Week Foundation, reflecting its commitment to progressive working practices and staff wellbeing — values that align naturally with its mission to improve quality of life through technology.
