My favourite grass roots charity, Autism Valued, is looking for a Dungeon Master Assistant to support their Dungeons & Dragons groups. The role is mostly about helping the main DM, guiding players when they need it, and contributing to a positive, welcoming game environment.
You don’t need deep rules knowledge — just a willingness to learn, communicate well, and be part of a supportive team.
A Working With Children Check is required eventually, and they use tools like Zoom, Google Suite, and Discord.
It’s a meaningful way to use your love of gaming, build facilitation skills, and support neurodivergent players in a really supportive community.
Several game masters involved with the Game Therapy Network have been working with AV for the last 5 years in various volunteer and paid facilitator roles, and have found them to be an amazing support for families and they never hesitate to recommend them to private clients.
Here’s the listing if you want the details:
