The August issue of FORWARD is out now

When people hear the phrase ‘virtual reality’, it’s often associated with gaming and simulated experiences. However, it’s increasingly being used as a therapy treatment in mental health, and complex neurological and physical rehabilitation. In the August issue of FORWARD, you can read about The Astonishing Visit – a concept to connect the less mobile to both people and places they love through virtual visits. If you’d like to get involved in a pilot programme currently being carried out by The Astonishing Visit, you will find the contact details within the article.

You can also read about:

• Planning and considerations for ageing with SCI
• East Midlands Airport’s ‘try before you fly’ experience
• Travelling abroad with your PA
• Learning the art of bowls
• Car adaptations
• Team BRIT’s new racing academy for disabled drivers
• Going off-road and exploring the great outdoors in a Tramper.
