The smalldances App is a series of video tutorials for parents, carers and healthcare professionals taking care of children in hospital. The intention is to encourage creative movement and relaxation through somatic dance, which can reduce pain perception and enrich hospital experience.
The smalldances App is now free to download for apple and android.

Following the news that we have been awarded a grant from PH Holt Foundation, we will be developing training for parents and healthcare staff this autumn to support the implementation of the App at Alder Hey Children’s Hospital.
