Help us keep the VR Lounge open so everyone can enjoy the Virtual World and all its benefits.

Wellington

The VR Lounge opened in Dec 2018 and has seen many great times and has enjoyed hosting many corporate and birthday parties.

The VR Lounge is due to close its doors on the 15th of Sept.

We currently do not have the time to spend at the shop to keep it functioning. Having a young family and other responsibilities which have become priority mean a shift away from a business that would otherwise continue to grow.

Our plan is to be able to hire an employee to run the day to day side of the shop.

We hope that with your help we can raise some funds to enable 1 or more people can be employed at the shop. Having someone employed full time would mean longer opening hours and therefore more opportunity for customers to come in on their schedule. There would also be an opportunity for the amount charged to be slightly decreased.

We hope to raise enough funds to cover the costs of 1 person employed full time for an initial 3 months and to help cover the cost of the shop rent.

VR has so many benefits for so many types of people. We had IDEA Services visiting us on a regular basis with their members.

We had several old age care facilities visit to help stimulate the mind and offset dementia.

VR has had many benefits with rehabilitation and pain management.

VR keeps you physically fit and mentally alert.

VR is a social activity.

VR is fun

VR shows you things you might never have imagined.

Use of funds

Funds raised will go into an account solely for paying employee wages.
