Celebrating World Continence Week: 20th – 26th June

Incontinence UK is celebrating World Continence Week (WCW) which is an annual awareness week to raise incontinence related issues.   It is estimated that between 3 and 6 million people in the UK may have some degree of incontinence and as many as 1 in 3 of us will have some continence problems at some time in our adult lives. This year’s theme is Improve your bottom line; encouraging people to adopt healthy bladder and bowel habits to prevent and improve incontinence. Surveys have shown that fewer than 40% of persons with urinary incontinence mention their problem to a doctor or nurse and this figure is even higher for those with bowel incontinence. These conditions have been inadequately treated and poorly addressed by medical professionals, despite the substantial impact on individual health, self-esteem and quality of life. In light of this, #WorldContinenceWeek seeks to draw attention to and increase public awareness about these conditions and to give sufferers the confidence to seek help and improve their quality of life. Please see our Incontinence UK website for our range of incontinence products including details on our June Special Offer where you can get £10 off when you spend over £100 on incontinence pull up pants.   What better way to celebrate WCW with getting £10 off your next Incontinence UK order!
