The Pelvic Pod is a space for real, open conversations about bladder, bowel, and pelvic health — the kind we don’t hear often enough. Through expert insights and lived experience, we share practical knowledge, break down stigma, and offer reassurance for everyday life. These honest conversations help normalise pelvic health and remind listeners they’re not alone.

Perimenopause and menopause can affect bladder, bowel, and pelvic health – but these changes are rarely talked about openly.
In Episode 1 of The Pelvic Pod, host Jen Bainbridge is joined by endocrinologist Dr Megan Ogilvie and pelvic health physiotherapist Hannah Orr to explore how menopause can impact continence and pelvic health, share trusted insights, and empower people with knowledge to reduce stigma and support wellbeing through this stage of life.
Living with incontinence can be isolating, especially when it’s something people feel unable to talk about.
In Episode 2 of The Pelvic Pod, Emma shares her personal story of living with incontinence for over 20 years. She speaks openly and honestly about the challenges, stigma, and impact on daily life, as well as the importance of being heard, supported, and understood.

We are pleased to present two completely free training courses which been developed with support from the IHC Foundation.
The aim of the Disability and Continence courses is to give you practical knowledge and tools for supporting people with additional needs to achieve their best level of continence and improve their overall quality of life.
There are two trainings - one for schools (e.g., teachers, teacher aides, learning support workers, parents and caregivers) and one for disability support services (e.g., residential staff, home support staff) - but the content may be useful for anyone supporting people with additional physical, sensory, developmental, learning, and/or behavioural needs.
