Where your boarding pass flies them
Every patient picks their own destination. We travel there and film it for them in immersive 360° virtual reality.
To the beach
A relaxing Airbnb stay of their choice, so they can enjoy the feeling of a real break away.
Back home
Their own home, so they can feel relaxed and calm in the company of their family.
Into the crowd
A game they love, so they feel part of the crowd and connected to their community while isolated in their hospital room.
Then we deliver it to their bedside. We send the patient their filmed holiday with a loan VR headset, so they can escape hospital to virtual travel and explore beautiful locations.
50 passes. $5,000. One holiday.
✈️ Every dollar goes to travel, accommodation and the VR software essential to develop each experience.
Please note: Each $5,000 Holiday from Hospital covers one destination per patient. Within that destination, our team films a range of locations to create a varied, immersive VR experience. Destinations are available across Australia and New Zealand.
