Does your child have additional needs and would you like to know more about how you can prepare and support them with their toilet training?

Our Family Service Team are hosting a webinar where they'll be looking at the challenges children may face and how you can support them in feeling comfortable using the toilet at a pace that reflects their needs.

This session will also help you to understand your child’s bowels, good bladder health, how to know when they are ready to toilet train and set them up for success.

We will also explore the sensory aspect of toileting and the difference the bathroom environment can make.

Is your child wetting at night?

If so, don't worry. This is quite normal and bedwetting is only considered to be an issue which can be treated from 5 years upwards.

Some children are dry at night soon after achieving success in the daytime - for others it is much later.

Find more information about bedwetting, the reasons and how to stop it on our website: link in the comments
