ERIC has a new Director
Howard Lake | 30 October 2008 | Newswire
ERIC, the national children’s charity that provides support to parents dealing with children’s bedwetting, daytime wetting and soiling problems, has a new Director. Jenny Perez, former Project Manager of Bristol City Council’s ‘Read a Million Words’, said ‘ Childhood continence is not an easy subject for children, young people and their parents / carers to talk about. I am looking forward to the challenge of building on ERIC’s past successes and with an aim of ensuring that every child and family who suffer with this problem know that ERIC is here and can help.
Jenny’s predecessor, Penny Dobson founded ERIC as a charity to help parents deal with bedwetting. Over the years, ERIC has moved forward to include not only bedwetting, but also daytime wetting and soiling support and information. Today, this busy and innovative charity offers a Helpline, a webshop, training and seminars, lobbies and campaigns for improvements in school toilets and drinking water and much, much more.
