Medicinema
MediCinema brings the real benefits of cinematherapy to patients and their families throughout the UK.
We do this by building, installing and running state-of-the-art cinemas in hospitals and other places of care. Our MediCinemas are fully equipped with the latest technology, including Dolby surround sound, RealD 3D technology and large silver screens, and we use the same architects and suppliers as those used by mainstream cinemas so they look and feel like any other cinema. Thanks to the support of the film industry, we show current releases so patients don’t have to miss out on seeing the latest blockbusters just because they are in hospital. Many patients comment that this helps break the ice with friends when they visit, as it gives them something other than their condition to talk about.
Our cinemas are as much built for a healthcare setting as they are to give a fully immersive cinema experience. No-matter if a patient is in a wheelchair, attached to a drip or even unable to leave their bed, we are able to welcome them, and to ensure their safety throughout the film, we hire two NHS nurses for every screening. Thanks to the support of our donors, our screenings are completely free for all patients and their families.
