Access All: Disability News and Mental Health

Access all Pokemon


Listen Later

Some of the creatures in the new mobile online gaming phenomenon Pokemon Go are not accessible if you're mobility impaired. But on the flip side of accessibility, some say the game is great for your mental health because it gets you outdoors while you attempt to capture the Pokemon in your local area. (go to the Related Links section of this page to find a transcript)

Visually impaired gamer Jemma Brown joins the Ouch team to tell us how she plays the game. The programme features Ouch regulars Damon Rose, Kathleen Hawkins and Emma Tracey.
