My daughter Meadow was having hundreds of seizures every day. It was horrific.

Right now, 1 in 3 children with epilepsy have seizures that can't be controlled by medication. Seizures have serious health risks and a huge impact on quality of life. 

Urgent progress in epilepsy research is needed but that can only happen with more funding. Children must not be left waiting for the help they need. 

A donation today can help develop new treatments. Every child with epilepsy can, one day, live seizure free.  

All donations will be automatically doubled. That’s double the difference you can make for children with epilepsy.

My daughter, Meadow, tried anti-seizure medication but her seizures were just building and building. She’s had some horrific experiences, primarily from drug side effects. They tried around 10 different types of medication to try to control her seizures. I've never felt so scared in all my life. Scared and very, very lonely.

Can you help fund research to improve the future of epilepsy diagnosis and treatments?

Right now in the UK, we don’t know why some children develop epilepsy and we don’t know why some children lose their lives to epilepsy. Yet there’s a significant underfunding of research into epilepsy compared with other conditions.

By supporting our research, you can help us learn about the causes of epilepsy and how they affect each patient.  

Your donation will help doctors to treat and manage each patient’s condition more effectively. 

If you were to give me one wish, I would wish to be seizure free.

I often say I feel like a guinea pig because I’ve tried about 10 different medications to try to stop my seizures. Every time we talk about trying a new medication, I’m scared about what it will do to me.
