Our German founding member KlinikClowns, active with 75 Healthcare Clowns in 121 Hospitals, Caring Homes for vulnerable Children, Seniors, Dementia Patients and Palliative Units were audited on-site in Bavaria by Margarita Galen, an outstanding healthcare clown professional and efhco board member. Margarita visited in February 2025 for 3 full days their headoffice and evaluated a couple of clown programs, following the working clowns during their bedside visits.
Margarita was able to attest to the consistently high quality of our members’ work in all areas inspected, from artistic work to management, fundraising and communications, both internally and regionally.
We are delighted for the founders, Elisabeth Makepeace and Peter Spiel, and their dedicated team. Many congratulations!
