What people say

  • “Let’s Go Potty, from ERIC – The Children’s Bowel & Bladder Charity, provides a trusted, common sense approach to getting children independently using the toilet. There’s no gimmicks, promises of 3 day miracles or expensive manuals. Just solid, evidence-based information which recognises the role of everyone involved.”

    Juliette, CEO at ERIC, The Children's Bowel & Bladder Charity

  • “School readiness is an increasing and worrying problem with many children arriving at school in nappies, not yet toilet trained. This is making huge demands on school nursing and school staff and on the child's health, well-being and educational attainment. Families and all those working in the Early Years sector need to work together to tackle this issue.”  

    Sharon White, Chief Executive of the School and Public Health Nurses Association, OBE.
