Listen in to People Fixing the World podcast on BBC World Service to hear our Clowndoctors, parents and nursing staff talk to host Myra Anubi about healthcare clowning in hospitals and how it helps to reduce anxiety and isolation for the children they visit.
Myra also speaks to Christopher Bailey, Arts and Health Lead at the World Health Organisation about recent research into healthcare clowning being a factor in aiding quicker recovery; leading to children being discharged earlier.
We were delighted to welcome Myra and her team to the Royal Hospital for Children in Glasgow where our Clowndoctors visit every Tuesday, and to have this opportunity to show her the benefits of healthcare clowning for children in hospital.
