There's a chance to try an 'immersive virtual reality sleigh ride over Newton Abbot' as Teignbridge Council highlights regeneration plans.

The council says the 'interactive experience is part of a major project to transform underused brownfield sites into vibrant spaces for homes, community facilities, and potentially a new leisure centre' and is a chance to help shape the proposals and see them in a more fun way.
