ERIC's Dry and Mighty Campaign
Conquering bedwetting with help from ERIC!
ERIC’s Dry and Mighty campaign will run throughout the summer months to raise awareness of bedwetting and to encourage parents to contact ERIC for support.
This summer, we know thousands of children and their families will be planning trips
with overnight stays and for the 500,000 UK children who wet the bed, these trips
can be a source of stress, fear and anxiety.
Trips away should be a fun time for the whole family, not a source of stress. There is
often something which can be done to overcome or manage bedwetting and ERIC is
here to help. We want to raise awareness of bedwetting so that children and parents
don’t feel alone and know where to go for help.
For information about bedwetting visit the bedwetting pages.
How you can help?
- Tell your friends about the campaign
- Post campaign information on Facebook or Twitter – check out the ERIC pages for more information
- Distribute posters and postcards. You could help us reach more families by distributing campaign posters and postcards to schools, doctors surgeries or other public buildings in your area. Email ERIC if you want to help.
"In life, there are little things that can have a really big impact on a family and bedwetting is one of those things - but it doesn’t have to be. ERIC is a fantastic charity and is able to pinpoint this issue. By contacting ERIC, families can stop childhood bedwetting becoming a big thing that takes over their lives.“Any parent with a child who wets the bed knows how the embarrassment makes it hard to talk openly about it. The child can be afraid to take part in fun sleepovers or school camps, in case anyone finds out. So it’s reassuring to know help is at hand. The ERIC Helpline (0845 370 8008) is available Monday to Friday 10am-4pm on and the website www.eric.org.uk has lots of information too.”

Right now across the UK, over half a million children wet the bed. So it’s not just you and your family going through these problems – tens of thousands of others are in the same boat. But help is at hand. ERIC has over 20 years of experience in helping families manage and overcome bedwetting. Call the ERIC Helpline 0845 370 008 or visit www.eric.org.uk and you and your family can beat bedwetting!

“The washing and the broken nights are bad enough. But the secrecy makes it worse for parents and young people alike. For many families, learning just how common bedwetting is can be a major relief. Often it’s a first step towards talking more openly about it.“ERIC is here to help, and I’d urge parents to call our helpline on 0845 370 8008. People you’ll speak to are friendly and easy to talk to. And you can rest assured the call will be completely confidential.”
