Healthcare explainer videosfor the NHS, care and health tech
Animated explainer videos for NHS organisations, care providers and health tech companies across the UK. Clear, calm films that help patients, families and staff understand a service before they use it, from £950 per minute, everything included.
Two kinds of film, depending on whether you're explaining a service or showing a system.
Patient and public explainers
For the service, the pathway or the message: how to get checked, what happens at an appointment, why screening matters, what moving into care looks like. Used on websites, in waiting rooms, in campaigns and for staff training. See our wider explainer video production.
For triage tools, patient apps and clinical software. Built from your own screens, so practices, staff and patients recognise exactly what they'll be using, from £700 per minute.
For the Kent and Medway Cancer Alliance, a film about fair access to cancer prevention, screening, diagnosis and treatment across very different communities. For Klinik, a demo of their online triage and patient-flow system for GP practices. Alongside those, work for NHS Surrey Heartlands, a welcome film for Hallmark Care Homes, and a patient-facing explainer for Pearls.
Why healthcare is hard to explain, and how animation helps
Health messages have to reach people who are worried, busy, unwell or simply not listening. Animation can show a pathway or a process calmly, without putting a real patient on camera.
The three problems we're usually solving
The audience is wide. One film may need to work for a GP, a carer, a teenager and someone whose first language isn't English. Illustrated characters and simple visuals travel further than a talking head, and the same film can be re-voiced or subtitled.
The subject is sensitive. Cancer, care homes and mental health need a tone that reassures without talking down. Animation lets you show difficult moments gently and keeps real patients' identities out of it.
The facts have to be right. Clinical accuracy isn't optional. Because the script is agreed before any animation starts, your clinical, communications and governance leads can review the exact words up front, and unlimited amends mean a late correction doesn't cost extra.

The same process for an NHS campaign, a care group or a health tech start-up.
1. Script
You explain the service; we help turn it into a script that lands one clear message. This is the stage for clinical and governance sign-off, before anything is drawn.
2. Storyboard and design
Characters and scenes designed in your brand, reflecting the people you serve, so you see how the film will look before it moves.
3. Animation, voice and sound
Animation, professional voice-over, music and sound effects, with unlimited amends until it's right. All in the per-minute price.
What is an animated explainer video for healthcare services?
It's a short animated film, usually 60 to 120 seconds, that explains one health service, pathway or message in plain language: who it's for, what happens, and what to do next. A voice-over carries the explanation while the animation shows it.
When it's worth having one
When staff keep answering the same question on the phone. When people don't take up a service because they don't understand it. When a new system or pathway needs explaining the same way to hundreds of people. A good explainer says it once, clearly, every time it's played.
We have a passion for creating beautiful, high-quality animation that converts views into customers and customers into sales.

Healthcare video production FAQs
The questions NHS, care and health tech teams most often ask before commissioning a video.
How much does a healthcare explainer video cost?
Animated explainers start from £950 per minute and platform demos from £700 per minute. That price includes script support, storyboard, design, animation, voice-over, music, sound effects and unlimited amends, so a public-sector budget holder knows the full cost up front. See our pricing.
Have you worked with the NHS?
Yes. We've made films for the Kent and Medway Cancer Alliance and NHS Surrey Heartlands, as well as care providers and health tech companies. You can watch them above.
Can our clinical or governance team sign off the script?
Yes, and the best time is at script stage, before any animation is drawn. Your reviewers see the exact words that will be spoken and shown on screen. If something needs correcting later, unlimited amends cover it.
Can the video work for different communities and languages?
Yes. Characters can be designed to reflect the people you serve, and because animation doesn't rely on anyone speaking to camera, the same film can be re-voiced or subtitled for other languages.
Can I script my own healthcare video?
Absolutely. We can work with your script or help you develop one. Most projects start with a rough draft from you, because you know your service and your patients best. Our guide to writing an explainer video script is a good starting point.
Are motion graphics and explainer videos the same?
How long does it take to produce a healthcare explainer video?
Production times vary depending on complexity, but typically range from two to five weeks. If a campaign or service launch fixes the date, tell us and we'll build the schedule around it.
How can I get started with creating an explainer video for my healthcare organisation?
Simply reach out through our contact form or give us a call. We'll discuss your project goals, target audience and key messages to craft a video that fits your needs. From there, our team will guide you through the entire production process.
Animated explainers start from £950 per minute, all-inclusive. See the full breakdown on our pricing page.
