Support for Urological Conditions: Where to Find Help.

You don't have to navigate urinary health alone.

Whether you're looking for information about a symptom, support for urological conditions, living with a diagnosed condition, supporting someone else, or simply trying to understand your urinary health, there are organisations that can help.

Oui does not provide medical advice. Instead, Oui helps to connect people with established charities, patient organisations and professional sources of information.

If you are worried about new or worsening symptoms, please seek advice from an appropriate healthcare professional. Blood in your urine should always be checked, even if it happens only once.
 
Oui is about starting conversations about urinary health and helping people find trusted sources of information and support.
 
The organisations below provide information, resources and support across different areas of urological, bladder, bowel and kidney health.
