About Young Epilepsy

Epilepsy can be one of the most frightening and isolating conditions a child can experience. There’s a loss of all sense of safety – not knowing when and where their next seizure will happen, who’ll be there and whether they’ll be hurt.

Young Epilepsy is dedicated to standing up with and for children and young people with epilepsy. We’re here for them. It’s our job to listen and work with them so they can fulfil their potential.
