TCG & Gaming hub

Aim

The aim is to create Dorset’s go-to TCG and Gaming Hub.

Hi, I'm Lee, also known as Windymassiveuk.

Trading card games have been a huge part of my life for many years. What started as travelling to events, buying, selling, and sharing my passion with fellow collectors has grown into something I never imagined—opening my very own local game store. 

Sadly my shop was burgled in the early hours of 21st August. Almost all of my stock was stolen.

I have received incredible support since this has happened and have decided not to throw the towel in. I’m ready to take the next step as we’ve built more than just a place to buy cards. We’ve created a welcoming space for meeting new people, trading and sharing a hobby they love. 

The current space has helped to build this amazing community. I want to expand and create a larger venue that can better support the growing player base and offer an even better experience for everyone who walks through the doors.

With your support, we’ll be able to: 

* Secure a larger, dedicated play space. 

* Add tables, seating, and facilities for events. 

* Start to host tournaments, leagues, and community nights. 

* Extend opening hours so more people can attend after work or school. 

* Create a safe, welcoming environment for players of all ages and experience levels.

This isn’t just about opening a bigger store. 

It’s about building a permanent home for our local trading card and hobbyist community.

A place where new players feel comfortable learning, experienced players can compete, families can enjoy the hobby together and where lifelong friendships are made. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to making that vision a reality. If you’re unable to donate, simply sharing this campaign with friends and family would mean the world to me.  

Thank you for believing in our journey and helping to create something that our community can be proud of for years to come.

All donators names will be placed on a plaque once the build is complete.

Leave your mark on the tables if your wish to donate more 

Donation between £80 and £100 and you'll become a part of our gaming space! We'll create a custom playmat for one of our tables featuring your name, so every player who sits down will know who helped make it all possible.

It's our way of saying thank you and giving you a lasting place in our community. Every game played at your table will be a reminder of your generosity and support.

Donate £500 or more and leave a lasting mark on our community with a gaming table named in your honour. A personalised plaque will proudly display your name, recognising your incredible generosity and the role you've played in bringing this space to life.

As an added thank you, you'll also have the opportunity to reserve your named table whenever you'd like to visit (with advance notice), giving you a special place to gather friends and enjoy the games you helped make possible.

This is our way of saying thank you for making such a meaningful difference to our community.

I can’t wait to welcome you into the next chapter. 

Thank you for your support.
