VR experience: Step into the future of New Brighton and Seacombe

Wearing a virtual reality headset, experience how young people have reimagined how New Brighton or Seacombe might look in the next 15 years!

The emerging Wirral Borough Council Local Plan states the council's intention to establish a Masterplan for West Kirby Concourse area and One West Kirby is hopeful that this process will commence before too long.

We have been informed by the Council of the following events on 14th/15th October about the New Brighton/Seacombe regeneration projects which, while it may not be directly applicable to West Kirby, does show how the council have involved young people to reimagine their neighbourhoods as part of the masterplanning process for New Brighton and Seacombe using Virtual Reality (VR) technology with the intention to try to involve as wide a range of the community as possible.

In two VR experiences lasting 15 minutes each, experience how local areas might look in the future: travel through New Brighton on a virtual reality open-top bus, or cruise the Seacombe riverfront on a pedalo.

We thought that we would make you aware of the events in case they are of interest to you.
