Description of Activity
Currently working on developing a consultancy project with colleagues, Dr Lorenzo Stafford and Dr Phil Jewell (SIGHT), and Blue Donut Studios (Mr Marcus Pullen). Mr Pullen and his team are developing a virtual reality platform (Virtality) for supporting people living with alcohol addiction. Targeted primarily in the private sector as a subscription service (with stepped care options), this platform arguably has the potential to service all areas of addiction and could form an invaluable adjunct to mainstream care in the in the national health service and private healthcare. My contribution involves my expertise as a practitioner Health Psychologist experienced in addiction work. Dr Stafford and I are consulting with Mr Pullen regarding platform development and research prospects. Currently Mr Pullen is beta testing the platform before formal research can be undertaken.
