Show Notes

Since 2016 Royal Trinity Hospice has been exploring the use of Virtual Reality in palliative care in partnership with Flix VR. Leon Ancliffe from Flix VR and ex-CEO of Royal Trinity Hospice, Dallas Pounds, describe how they’ve used VR for a range of purposes from bucket list experiences for people nearing the end of life to giving staff exposure to challenging interpersonal situations as part of supported learning experiences. They share their experiences and tips for both learning professionals and business leaders to make the most of this rapidly maturing technology.
