ERIC, the children’s bowel and bladder charity is the only UK charity dedicated to improving the lives of children and young people with continence problems (daytime wetting, night-time wetting, constipation, soiling and toilet training). Childhood continence problems are more common than people realise: 1 in 12 children suffer with one and the emotional impact on their lives can be considerable. For many of the children and families who struggle to cope with these distressing conditions, ERIC is the only place they can come to for support, understanding and the information they need. We directly support over 260,000 children and families and health professionals each year and indirectly help many more.
