In 2019 a Little Linac model kit, containing 82 building blocks, was developed for children undergoing radiotherapy treatment for cancer. The hope is that building the model will alleviate some of the stress experienced by the child before undergoing treatment by helping them to understand what the treatment entails. The kit was developed by Professor David Brettle, [[Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine]] (IPEM) in collaboration with manufacturers Best-Lock Ltd. The model can be seen at the [[Science Museum, London]].
