More information
The Theodora Foundation was founded by Jan and André Poulie in 1993 in memory of their mother, Théodora. The Foundation is active every week in 42 hospitals throughout Switzerland, with 43 clowns visiting over 70,000 young patients per year. In addition, there are 88 Theodora clown doctors working in 8 countries, visiting over 150,000 children in 42 hospitals every year. The Foundation is committed to making the clown doctor programme available to hospitalised children around the world. The work of Theodora Children’s Trust, the UK charity, is inspired by the philosophy shared by this international network of clown doctor programmes and is enriched by their wide-ranging experience.
