The Society for Continence (Singapore) (SFCS) originated from the dedicated efforts of a group of doctors, nurses and rehabilitation therapists who recognised the special needs of the incontinent as far back as 1988. Among the pioneering group of people to be mentioned are Dr Anne Merriman, Dr Rilly Ray and Prof Peter Lim Huat Chye. In 1988, a symposium on the Management of Urinary Incontinence was held for the first time in Singapore for all healthcare professionals to address this growing malady.

The enthusiasm shown by medical professionals in treating incontinent patients prompted Prof Peter Lim Huat Chye, a Consultant Urologist to form an organisation to look into this sub-specialty. SFCS was officially set up in Toa Payoh Hospital as a voluntary welfare organisation registered with the Singapore government in 1991.

This app is created to disseminate information and educate healthcare professionals and the public on methods to promote urinary & bowel continence.

It helps to promote the education, training and rehabilitation of the incontinent and their general interests and welfare.
