What We Do
We build, install and run state-of-the-art cinemas in hospitals.
MediCinema improves the wellbeing and quality of life of NHS patients and their families through the power of the shared cinema experience and the magic of film. We create and operate cinemas inside hospitals, specially designed to accommodate beds, wheelchairs and medical equipment and we screen the latest films completely free of charge. Using this unique approach our cinema-based programmes boost patient resilience, improving the emotional and physical impact of being in hospital.
At no cost to the NHS, since our inaugural MediCinema opened in 1999 at St Thomas' Hospital in London, we've provided hundreds of thousands of unforgettable cinematic experiences to patients, their families, and those closest to them, completely free of charge.
