Being a sick child in hospital can be a scary, confusing, distressing, anxious and painful time. Clown Doctors are there to treat these sick, hospitalised children with a special kind of medicine; fun, smiles and laughter. The Clown Doctors program delivers the health benefits of humour by engaging in play with sick children and their families, lightening the serious side of the hospital environment, and bringing the performing arts to the bedside of sick and vulnerable children who need it most.
The Clown Doctors is a unique program, being the only one if its' kind in Australia. Clown Doctors assist in the emotional healing, empowerment, treatment and recovery of seriously ill children. The program aims to improve the quality of life for sick children and their families in hospital, and promote positive mental health and coping during times of serious illness, trauma, anxiety, injury, fear and stressful situations.
The Clown Doctors program touches the lives of 135,000 sick children, families and hospital staff every year and works in partnership with 21 hospitals in every state of Australia.
The need for Clown Doctors in hospitals is increasing every day. We often have people asking us why we aren't in the hospital more often. You can support the Clown Doctors program in your state or territory by giving a vital gift today. Every gift you make will help put a smile on the face of a sick child. The more smiles we spread, the more sick children we can reach, and the more Australian families who will benefit from the healing work of the Clown Doctors.
