Sutton council creates virtual world for youngsters

Young people in Surrey will soon be able to walk into their own virtual world, developed by the local council in an effort to improve their confidence. Sutton council is proposing to create a "walk-in" virtual world which aims to "give young people the confidence to make the best of their lives and have a positive impact on their peers and their local community". These young people don't know they're born. In Downtime's day all they had to improve their confidence was a carrot and a lump of coal.
