World Continence Week 2012

World Continence Week (WCW) is an annual initiative managed and run by the International Continence Society (ICS). It's primary aim is to raise awareness of incontinence related issues.

In 2012 and for the first time, B&BF will be supporting World Continence Week which will be held from Monday 18th June to Sunday 24th June 2012.

WCW 2012 seeks to draw attention to and increase public awareness of these conditions and to give those people affected by incontinence issues the confidence to seek help and improve their quality of life. In the past WCW events have been held around the world including USA, China, Singapore, Poland, Slovakia, New Zealand and Germany.

B&BF will be announcing it's plans for this initiative shortly and will place more information on this page about the week. For more information on the ICS World Continence Week please visit their website.

National Continence Awareness Week

It is with regret that B&BF announces it will not be running National Continence Awareness Week in 2012 and would like to thank everyone who has supported this week in the past. B&BF's Board of Directors agreed that a collaborative approach to raising awareness utilising resources across the world would provide a more robus platform from which to address continence management needs, and offer a much louder voice in terms of altering people's perceptions to this area of healthcare.
