Incontinence affects over 5 million Aussies!
About the ‘Laugh Without Leaking’ Campaign
From June 18-24 we internationally recognise Incontinence Week, and will be raising awareness right across the country.
We know that for many, leaking is no laughing matter. It affects people of all ages and genders.
Facts about Incontinence:
- It is NOT a normal part of ageing or motherhood
- It is NOT going to go away on its own
- It is NOT something many of us like to talk about…even to our own family, friends or doctor
Humour is a great way to break down these barriers and start a conversation that could change your life for the better.
The good news is most bladder, bowel and pelvic floor problems can be better treated, managed or even cured.
