Although there is increasing news coverage and more ostomates are speaking out, we believe more can be done to educate the wider public.

We have over 200 ducks on an adventure over the summer to raise awareness for people around the world living with a stoma. If you find a duck on its travels, please help it on its way to a new location (you could win a prize!) All you need to do is: –

1. Find the ducks name (look underneath)

2. Take it with you….

3. Leave it somewhere nice where it can be found easily!

4. Take a photo of the duck in it’s new location

5. Send your photo, the name of your duck and where you left it to [email protected]

6. Track the ducks journey on facebook/TGEakin!

Prizes

If you find a duck and help it on its journey your name will go into a monthly prize draw to win an Amazon voucher.

Good luck!

We are delighted to announce the launch of a new product, eakin Contour Flange Extenders.

eakin Contour Flange Extenders are uniquely designed to let you extend your line of defence against leaks to ensure you feel more secure whilst also experiencing enhanced comfort.

eakin Contour Flange Extenders are suitable for you if….

• You have lumps bumps or hernias and want to bend, stretch and move without restriction, then eakin Contour Flange Extenders are ideal as the unique fluted design allows them to mould and flex easily to any body type or shape – no matter how challenging or difficult

• Or perhaps you’re looking for security and comfort in equal measures? You’ll get this from the skin–friendly hydrocolloid, thin tapered edges and the smooth satin finish which combine to hug the body like a second skin and prevent edge lift.

For further information please contact your local distributor for samples.

Our in-house Research & Development Department work very hard in the lab developing new products but we are keen to talk to people currently living with a wound to help us gain a better understanding of your daily wound care.

Perhaps you have fistula or an opening in your skin that creates enough output to require a bag to collect or multiple daily dressing changes. Maybe you are under the care of a community nursing team that help you with your wound, or maybe you are skilled at managing it yourself.

It is our hope that with your help we may be able to develop products in the future to improve the quality of life of people living with a wound.

If you, or someone you know, has a wound and are interested in helping us by providing their story, then please contact us by email at [email protected] for more information.

When you contact us, we will be discreet and anything you tell us will remain completely confidential.

We will not use your personal information for sales, marketing or any promotions and we will not share your personal information with anyone else.

We are finally announcing the winners of our photography competition!

We’d like to say a big thanks to everyone for participating, they were all amazing! They all capture exactly what we are hoping to achieve, having a stoma is just a small part of a bigger life.

And now we’d like to congratulate Slade Thomas who takes 1st prize, Lukas Klein who takes 2nd prize and Ellen Rana-Sudario who takes 3rd prize.

Although there is only 3 winners, we’d also like to reward Heather Cowlin who has been super active during the competition! So Heather will receive a special merit and recognition prize for submitting so many great photos.

Again, a big thank you to all other participants!

To capture what “A Small Part of A Bigger Life” means to you we’d love to see your photos showing people enjoying very real, normal moments of life.

Thank you to all who have already shared their photographs with us. There is still plenty of time to enter if you haven’t already done so!

We are delighted to announce the launch of a new small Access Window and midi Wound Pouch with bung closure to our Wound Pouch range.

The newest pouch in the range has been designed, according to popular demand, to accommodate midline incision wounds. It measures 250 x 80mm and takes the total to 15 pouches in the range. The result is a comprehensive solution for wound management; from the smallest pouch measuring 45 x 30mm to the largest pouch on the market measuring 250 x 385mm.

In order to facilitate access to our small and medium pouches in the range, we have developed a small Access Window. This circular window has a maximum cutting diameter of 60mm. A slighter higher profile permits packing with gauze if required.
