Erikshjälpen's founder wanted to ensure that even sick children could be happy children. We want to continue contributing to that vision. That's why we collaborate with Kultursjukhuset , which uses clowning, fairy tales and music to make life easier for sick children and their families.
Many children live with chronic illnesses, have been injured or have a close relative who is ill. Being hospitalized or having an illness that requires frequent visits to the hospital can be scary, sad and difficult for a child.
Kultursjukhuset is a nonprofit organization that uses clowning, music, fairy tales, and storytelling to make life easier for sick children and their families. Play and creativity can encourage both conversation and laughter, bringing joy and comfort in an otherwise difficult situation. Kultursjukhuset is also part of the care team and is sometimes present during medical examinations to provide distraction and support.
