Little Journey

Young patients coming to RJAH can now use a child-friendly app to help them feel prepared for their surgery and treatment.

The Little Journey app provides engaging, interactive and age-appropriate content to help calm any anxieties that children may have about coming into hospital to help them, and their patients and carers to better understand what will happen during their stay.

Little Journey was founded in 2018 by Dr Chris Evans, an anaesthetic Doctor, who had witnessed first-hand how distressed and anxious children and families felt about surgery, along with Sophie Copley, an expert in human-centred product design.
