GNer – do you have a sensitive bladder and use pants? Share your story and help empower women like you! NOW CLOSED

We have been asked by Always Discreet to find 3 MN or GN volunteers who have a sensitive bladder - who wear pants to help with this - and who are willing and able to act as a case study for the brand. If this is you, please read on, if not then ignore this email.

We are working with Always Discreet and last year we successfully recruited a number of mumsnetters and gransnetters who were part of an awe inspiring female health project around sensitive bladder, sharing their stories, helping to banish the taboos surrounding the topic and talking about the products that worked for them.

The team at Always Discreet say "did you know, 1 in 3 women in the UK experience sensitive bladder at some point in their lives? We understand the huge impact this condition can have on a woman’s day to day life and how it can sometimes stop her wearing the clothes she loves, travelling to new places and even exercising the way she used to".

Now, they are looking for three more women who live with bladder sensitivity to share their stories. And this time, they are looking specifically for any ladies who use incontinence pants as their main form of protection from bladder leaks. They want to capture the stories in a variety of different ways including on film, as short audio podcasts and as written stories and share the positive effects that new Always Discreet products are having on the users lives. Exact details of how they hope to work with volunteers can be found in the below terms and conditions, and they will of course compensate you for your time if you are one of the selected three.

If you are selected as one of the three to share your story, Always will send you two month’s worth of Always Discreet Incontinence Pants for Sensitive Bladder to trial. They will then work with you to capture your story on film as well as your feedback on the product similar to Elaine’s story which can be seen here. Exact details of how we hope to work together can be found below, and you will be compensated for your time if you are one of the selected three with £500.

So if you have a positive story about how you manage your sensitive bladder and you’d like to help empower other women living with sensitive bladder, we would love to hear from you.

Do add your details here: www.surveymonkey.com/r/HGXWGHX

We look forward to hearing from you!

Best wishes
