Exploring Solihull’s Parks Virtually
As part of a project to improve accessibility and inclusivity, Solihull Council commissioned young adults with learning disabilities from Newlands Bishop Farm to recreate Malvern and Brueton Parks in Minecraft. The virtual parks feature familiar landmarks and over 50 interactive characters, offering a safe and engaging way for users, especially those with mobility or social challenges, to explore the spaces from home.
