ERIC awarded funds thanks to players of People’s Postcode Lottery

Here at ERIC, The Children’s Bowel & Bladder Charity, we are extremely grateful to have been awarded funds by the Postcode Community Trust, made possible thanks to players of People’s Postcode Lottery.

This funding will allow us to continue to provide vital support to children with bladder and bowel conditions and their families. A big thank you from us, to everyone involved!

Our vision at ERIC is for children and young people everywhere to enjoy good bladder and bowel health. We offer information, advice and support for parents/carers, healthcare professionals and early years workers via our website, helpline, training and online shop.

The funding was awarded to ERIC by the Postcode Community Trust following Millionaire Street prize wins for eight neighbours in Kingswood last October. Each month Millionaire Street prizes benefit charities in the areas with the winning postcodes, so we are delighted that our Kingswood neighbours were so lucky.

ERIC CEO, Siân Wicks, says: “Huge, heartfelt thanks to everyone involved in this generous support, made possible thanks to players of People’s Postcode Lottery.

1 in 9 children in the UK are affected by a bladder or bowel problem. Funding like this helps ERIC to reach those children and their families, providing vital support.

At a time when demand for our charitable service is growing, this is so important. On behalf of everyone at ERIC – thank you.”
