title: Developing integrated paediatric continence services.
abstract: The Paediatric Continence Forum is a coalition of specialist clinicians, nurses and industry representatives, and is chaired by Penny Dobson. It came together in 2003 through a mutual concern about the fragmented and under-resourced nature of NHS services for children with bladder and bowel problems, and aimed to highlight the need for dedicated services for these problems and to campaign to have continence included in the National Service Framework for Children, Young People and Maternity Services (NSF) (DoH, 2004a).
