Together, we create possible

No child should live in fear of their own body. Seizures can be frightening and they can leave children in pain, feeling confused and alone.

Nearly every hour, another child or young person in the UK is diagnosed with epilepsy.

Show your support by taking on the challenge and help stop the fear of seizures.

Breakthrough treatments and day to day support can transform their lives. Together we can create a future where every child with epilepsy can live seizure free

 

What do we do? 

Children and young people with epilepsy have a right to be heard. We listen, and we work with them to make their lives better. Visit our about us page to find out more about our services that provide innovative tools, information, and practical support for living everyday life.
