Founded by an adoptive parent who envisioned a better, more empathetic approach to adoption and fostering. Witnessing the profound impact of VR content on Alzheimer's care, she saw an opportunity to bring similar innovation to the care, fostering, and adoption sectors.
We soon set about making our own VR films, designed to help adopters, foster carers, social workers, teachers and judges understand the impact of attachment-related trauma on a child.
These films provide a unique perspective on attachment-related trauma. They allow individuals to witness and understand the experiences and emotions of children and young people from adverse backgrounds. From the moment they enter the virtual world, viewers are transported to the earliest stages of development, experiencing the hardships and challenges faced by vulnerable children first-hand.
We take immense pride in our work here at Cornerstone VR, especially when we hear about the positive changes in the lives of young people. Stories of parents adapting their parenting styles or schools deciding to support a child due to our resources are the moments that inspire us the most. These transformations are a testament to the power of understanding and empathy in creating lasting change.Working Hours :Monday-Friday 9am-5pmSkills: Communication skills,Attention to detail,Organisation skills,Customer care skills,Administrative skills,Team working,Creative,Initiative,Energetic,Adaptable to change....Read more...
