About Us Meet Journawell: Experts in Fertility Travel & Concierge Support

At Journawell, we transform life-changing journeys into seamless, unforgettable experiences.

Our story began with a deeply personal IVF trip abroad to Turkey. At 37, I faced infertility challenges and had undergone a tubal removal surgery during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in the UK. The National Health Service waiting list was dauntingly long, and with non-urgent surgeries delayed indefinitely, I had already lost over a year waiting for the next step. Time wasn’t on my side, and I knew my body couldn’t wait any longer.

Determined to take control, we planned a trip that would combine the critical IVF treatment we needed with a chance to create lasting memories. Although only a week abroad was required for the procedure, we decided to extend it into a three-week adventure. As superfans of Turkey and with my personal experience of living in Istanbul 10 years ago, I knew the country offered world-class healthcare alongside incredible cultural experiences. Confident in our decision, we booked the journey in April 2022.

Planning an IVF trip abroad was as stressful as it was daunting. I had endless questions with no one to turn to for answers, all while juggling the challenge of creating day itineraries to keep my two stepchildren entertained. Balancing the energy to plan activities, go sightseeing, and focus on my emotional well-being felt overwhelming. Some days, I simply didn’t have the strength to figure it all out.

After an incredible IVF experience and the success of our very first IVF cycle, our dream came true. We welcomed our beautiful baby boy, Forrest, into the world on New Year’s Day—a moment of pure joy and the perfect start to a new chapter, and for this reason Journawell was born also.

What started as a solution to navigate the complexities of travel and medical care has become a service dedicated to crafting tailor-made experiences for others. From medical travel and wellness retreats to corporate events or leisure holidays, Journawell handles everything—from flights and accommodation to cultural excursions and family activities—so you don’t have to. If you can think of it we will handle it, and if you can’t think of it, we have that covered too.

Let us take care of the details while you focus on what matters most: making memories, achieving milestones, and enjoying your journey.

To make things effortless, we provide a personalised e-file containing all your travel documents, daily schedules, appointment details, and activities. All you need to do is book your annual leave from work—we’ll handle the rest, including organising pet care if needed.

At Journawell, we pride ourselves on making the impossible possible. No request is too much. Let us take the reins so you can focus on enjoying every moment of your journey.

As part of our mission to give back, Journawell is proud to support hardworking, low-income families with much-needed holidays or IVF support. Through donations and our charitable initiatives, we aim to bring life-changing opportunities to those who need them most, creating memories and giving hope to deserving families.

Journawell’s Giving Journey: Empowering Families with Life-Changing Support

At Journawell, we believe in the power of community and the importance of giving back. Our mission goes beyond providing lifestyle concierge services—we are committed to supporting hardworking, low-income families who need a well-deserved holiday or those who can’t afford IVF to create their family.

Through our charitable initiatives, we provide these families with the opportunity to experience life-changing travel or medical care. The first families to receive this support will have their journeys shared as a JournaBlog, allowing our community to witness the impact of these experiences through heartwarming updates and good news stories.

We are dedicated to ensuring transparency and sharing the real-life stories of those whose lives have been changed through these initiatives. Stay tuned for inspiring updates as we work to make a difference, one journey at a time.
