Mark Baldwin from SchooVR alongside Laura Houston Jim Corrigan Katie Fox and Niall Coleman from RehabCare Quayside Dundalk.

MeMBeRS of RehabCare Quayside in Dundalk have glimpsed the future with the help of state-of-the-art virtual reality headsets, gifted to the centre by Mark Baldwin of innovative software company, SchooVR, and Facebook parent company, Meta. the support service has taken delivery of four Meta Quest 2 headsets which allow members to discover the streets of New York, take in an art exhibition, visit Graceland, or hop on a roller-coaster, without leaving the resource centre in Quayside Business Park.

With co-operation from RehabCare staff member Stephen Caraher, SchooVR and Meta teamed up to sponsor the virtual reality headsets enabling members of the service to access new and exciting opportunities.

Stephen spoke about the possibilities that the virtual reality (VR) headsets have afforded the members of the service. “In RehabCare Quayside, virtual reality has been introduced in an unimaginable way which will allow members in our service to progress in areas such as education, fitness, and social abilities. With Mark’s knowledge and skills as both a teacher and digital expert, his company, SchooVR, promotes pioneering methods of education in an exciting way through VR. Mark kindly came to visit our group with the VR headsets and gave a demonstration to our staff members Laura houston and Katie Fox.

“one member of RehabCare, Niall Coleman, was able to achieve his long-term goal of skydiving through the use of VR. even though Niall may not have the ability to physically experience a skydive, emotionally he felt as though he actually jumped out of a plane” added Stephen.

RehabCare offers a wide range of programmes from I.t. skills to cookery and crafts, as well as work experience opportunities in the community. RehabCare’s community-based resource centres help people achieve their full potential and improve their quality of life.
