In late September 2024, we hosted an insightful roundtable event at our UK office in Corby, bringing together senior NHS professionals, the NHS Supply Chain and the Bladder
Health UK charity to discuss the evolving landscape of continence care. The two-day
sessions delved into pressing topics such as sustainability, shifting attitudes towards continence care, the impact of a changing demographic, and rising expectations in the sector. Key themes included the importance of training and education, addressing financial and funding challenges, promoting bladder health, and navigating broader changes shaping the field, including evolving patient attitudes.

In an increasingly difficult landscape, having transparent and unbiased discussions can sow the seeds for improvements within both the NHS and with suppliers. Moving forward, Ontex
and NHS professionals are proud to be committed to an ongoing dialogue and partnership to drive these priorities. By leveraging collective expertise and resources, the sector aims to create a future where continence care is more sustainable, inclusive, and effective for all.
A huge thank you to everybody who attended!
