Meet the Professor

The Mencap Spellathon is presented by ‘The Professor’, a 3D bee voiced by Stephen Fry.

Set in a futuristic digital universe, the Spelling Bee guides you through a series of fun, fast moving, visual and interactive spelling games online.

The games can be played on the whiteboard, on a mobile phone or tablet, at home, at school or even on your commute to school, college or work!

There will be a variety of games on offer, but whether you’re racing the clock, competing against others or trying your hand at reverse spelling, each game is designed to push your spelling standards to the next level.

With amazing prizes, the chance to raise funds and a global audience watching, this is a competition like no other!
