Our research aims to find sustainable solutions for people living with bladder and bowel leakage problems to improve their quality of life.
Our mission is to improve the lives of people living with bladder and bowel leakage (incontinence) and urine retention problems. We carry out collaborative and multidisciplinary research with outcomes that have maximum impact on patients by influencing policy and changing practise throughout the UK and internationally. Our research focuses on developing and evaluating sustainable technologies and strategies designed to improve the quality of life for people living with bladder and bowel problems. The experience of end users is at the heart of our work and product users and informal carers are involved at all stages. We have strong established collaborations in the UK and worldwide with consumer and professional groups, condition-specific charities, industry and many academic groups.

In collaboration with the International Continence Society and the International Consultation on Incontinence we host the www.continenceproductadvisor.org.
