Helping Children North East Create More Accessible Spaces Through Virtual Tours

We recently had the privilege of working with Children North East, donating our time to capture a full Matterport 3D virtual tour of one of their facilities.

This project is close to our hearts — it’s all about helping neurodivergent families explore the environment before visiting in person.
For many children, new spaces can feel unfamiliar or overwhelming. By allowing families to navigate the facility virtually, they can understand what to expect, easing anxiety and helping each visit feel calmer and more positive.

The virtual tour will also help staff and support teams showcase the space safely and efficiently, reinforcing the charity’s commitment to inclusion, accessibility, and family wellbeing.

Children North East has been supporting children, young people and families for over 130 years — creating safe, empowering spaces where everyone is welcome.

We’re proud to play a small part in that story by providing digital tools that help them continue their amazing work.
