Minecraft helping Leicester students with autism
De Montfort University (DMU) in Leicester is using the computer game Minecraft to help students with autism.
The idea is to help students make connections playing the game before they arrive at university, so they can settle in and engage with each other.
The Minecraft Movie is currently showing in cinemas breaking box office records.
DMU Autism Officer Clare Squires and student Eden Turner spoke to BBC Leicester's Jack Rafferty.
