This website provides information and support on childhood bedwetting, daytime wetting, constipation and soiling to children, young people, parents and professionals.

Water and Toilets

ERIC is running two-school based campaigns to improve water and toilet facilities for pupils. Being able to drink fresh water throughout the school day and being able to use good quality toilets when you need to are important for all pupils to keep well, and are especially important for children who have wetting or soiling problems. Wetting and soiling problems are bedwetting, daytime wetting, soiling and constipation - problems with your bladder and bowels.

We believe that being able to drink fresh water free of charge throughout the school day and being able to use good quality toilets when you need to are basic human rights.

The aims of Water is Cool in School are:

  • To increase awareness of the health benefits to children of drinking good levels of water regularly during the school day
