Blackpool Paediatric Continence Service provides community care for upward of 500+ children in schools, Clinics and their own homes. Incontinence in children may be caused by physical disability, a learning difficulty, or psychological or social problems.

Bedwetting is a widespread and distressing condition which can significantly affect the child’s behaviour, emotional wellbeing and social life. Children who wet the bed at night often fear sleepovers or school trips in case they are bullied or ridiculed. They also worry they will be excluded and lose their friends if they refuse to attend.

The Blackpool Paediatric Continence Team have asked for our help to fund resources including enuresis (bedwetting) alarms, wobl watches and picture books to help children learn how their body works.

This equipment will prove to be a great resource to the team as they are reusable and often avoid the need for the child to be prescribed ongoing medications.

The total cost of fulfilling this project is £485.53

“The specialist treatment chairs are a new vital resource for the therapy team and nursing staff to be able to safely and comfortably sit extremely complex, dependant, critical care patients out of bed. The chairs allow us to begin the patient’s rehabilitation journey by providing appropriate postural support at the same time as pressure relief to allow the patient to build the muscle strength to hold themselves up against gravity. This allows them to begin to interact with their environment in a more normal way, enabling them to participate in meaningful activities such as meal times and activities of daily living.”
