Find NHS Continence Services and Charity Services Near You

If you or someone you care for is experiencing bladder or bowel leaks for the first time, you don’t have to manage it alone. 

Thanks to local continence services, physiotherapists and NHS continence specialists, help is available across the UK. These specialist teams work with people every day to help people navigate incontinence, providing expert guidance, medical advice and product referrals.

We’ve built this page to bring together trusted routes to support, from national helplines to local NHS continence services. 

Think of it as your Yellow Pages for continence care.

Each link takes you directly to the services’ official website so you can find up-to-date details, referral forms, and opening times in your area.

Using this continence services directory, you will find:

• Advice on how to access specialist GP or continence nurse support
• NHS bladder and bowel services in your region
• National helplines and trusted charities
• Pelvic health physiotherapy directories

We’ve tried our best to ensure every link listed here links directly to trusted NHS, partner or charity websites, so you’ll always reach the right place for help.

The below continence services are grouped by region.

First, find the region that applies to you, then choose the service that best matches your needs. Where possible, we have also listed which services cater to adult and/or children’s care.

Despite our best efforts, this isn’t a complete list, so if your area isn’t specifically listed, your GP practice or local NHS board will be able to tell you which continence service covers your postcode.

All listings were reviewed and updated in November 2025.

We have avoided including phone numbers and email addresses so that the information stays current. However, each link takes you to the official page where you can find the latest contact details and referral guidance.
