What is Cornerstone VR ?
Cornerstone VR is an award-winning, trauma-informed virtual reality programme used by professionals who work with vulnerable children and their families.
Our programme is used in almost 50% of local authorities, as well as independent fostering and adoption agencies, NHS trusts, schools, universities, ambulance services, the police and other independent providers.
Through a series of short 360° VR immersive films, where the user can live the experience of an abused, neglected or exploited child, our programme is designed to enhance empathy and understanding of early-life trauma and its continued influence throughout childhood, adolescence and into adulthood. This empowers our users to consider potential emotions, trauma, and possible triggers, thereby improving the care, support, and guidance they can provide to individuals of all age groups.
What do we want
to achieve?
Our childhoods have an impact on every aspect of our lives, which is why our VR Programme closely follows the lives of children and young children from pre-birth to adolescence as they experience trauma, abuse, neglect and the challenges and dangers of societal issues.
We place our users at the heart of their experiences through a series of unforgettable immersive VR films aimed at enhancing understanding, empathy and challenging behaviours, in order to provide an experiental trauma-informed approach.
By working with practitioners directly supporting children, young people, and families, we’ve ensured that our programme is a clinically led, impactful training, intervention and development tool.
