One-to-one support
One-to-one Youth Support is primarily for young people and children living with epilepsy aged 8 to 18 years old.
Being a teen with epilepsy isn’t always easy—but you’re not alone
Let’s be real—being a teenager can be a lot. School, friendships, figuring out who you are, planning for the future... and when you add epilepsy into the mix, it can feel even more overwhelming. But this space is here for you. Whether you’ve just been diagnosed or you’ve been living with epilepsy for a while, we’ve got your back.
Support that makes sense for you
This is your space to get answers, find support, and feel understood. We’ve pulled together everything you might need to help you feel more confident and in control. From understanding your seizures to managing school and exams, from looking after your emotional wellbeing to figuring out relationships and independence—we’re here to help you through it all.
School, stress, and standing on your own two feet
We know that epilepsy can affect more than just your health. It can impact how you feel, how you learn, and how you see your future. That’s why we’re here with support that covers it all. Whether you’re revising for exams, thinking about college, or just trying to keep up with your mates, we’ve got tips and advice to help you manage.
You’ll find guidance on talking to teachers, looking after your emotional wellbeing, and building confidence as you take on more independence—like learning to drive, getting a part-time job, or navigating relationships. Whatever’s on your mind, we’re here to help you feel ready for what’s next.
For parents and carers too
We know your family plays a big part in your journey. That’s why we’ve included guidance for parents and carers too—so they can support you while giving you the space to grow.
You’ve got this—and we’ve got you
Epilepsy might be part of your life, but it doesn’t define you. This space is here to help you feel seen, supported, and ready to take on whatever comes your way.
