About ERIC
What's the issue?
Our mission and vision
We want children and young people everywhere to enjoy good bowel and bladder health. People shouldn’t feel embarrassed or ashamed to talk about wee and poo – it should be a conversation we have from birth.
We’re here to:
- Empower children, young people and their carers with accessible support, information and resources
- Deliver the best education and learning for anyone who supports children and young people – that includes healthcare, social care, early years, and education professionals
- Influence research, policy development and products to spark innovation and positive change and improve outcomes for young people
We don’t just talk – we act. Find out what we’ve been doing to support children, young people and their families.
