Our take

Undergoing healthcare treatments can be a confusing and frightening process for children. Little Journeys helps to ease this problem with its interacting eSupport platform, aimed specifically at children.

Little Journeys was created after its founder saw how stressful the medical process could be for children. Initially an app designed to support children undergoing elective surgery, the platform has since grown enormously. The app is now accredited by the British Medical Journal, and supports families all over the UK and further afield.

Little Journeys' platform taps into an undeniable demand, as parents look for greater transparency and support throughout the healthcare process. If the company can scale its outreach and user base in the coming years, it stands to make impressive gains. Recent funding will support it moving forwards, as it further develops the product and boosts its international expansion.
