Kings Lynn R&D Project

Members of our fantastic team have been working on a creative project in collaboration with Collusion, based in King’s Lynn bringing new and exciting ideas to the town. The project took spectators through 5 different eras, challenging them with questions and games, testing their knowledge and skills.

About the project

Our project is designed to target the unemployed, including the long-term unemployed, along with those who are economically inactive, focusing on basic life skills.

Using virtual reality experiences, we aim to reignite participants levels of engagement, building on their life skills and creating a platform to explore further education and training.

Through our experiences we look to increase confidence, self-esteem and basic IT skills, ensuring our participants are confident with IT and aware of the jobs/roles associated within this sector.
