May 2009: Ruth Emery, Children's Continence Nurse Specialist, NHS Bradford and Airedale knows just how vital the work of ERIC is:

'For children who suffer from the drastic effects of being incontinent, the initial first contact is so important in helping them regain control of their problems, which often feels too overwhelming for them, their parents and even health care professionals.  What better place to begin to search for ways to resolve these difficult problems than ERIC?'

'Many of the parents I talk to say they wished ERIC had been available when they had these problems as a child and I don't want to see ERIC disappear simply because not enough people are aware of all the help that ERIC offers.  Please join me in helping ERIC raise £47,000 this year to help thousands more families, children and health professionals - simply click on the donate button'.
