The Flood Stories project uses 360 immersive videos to capture the lived experiences of young people affected by flooding. These videos, developed in partnership with Lancaster University, bring these narratives to life, allowing viewers to see flooding from a childs perspective. Immersive storytelling technology is a powerful tool for raising awareness and fostering a deeper understanding of flood risks and recovery challenges
