Do you need exam support? Exams can be stressful, but our exam support groups are here to help.
Are you 18 or over and living with epilepsy?
If you're 18 or over and living with epilepsy, you're in the right place. Whether you're off to uni, starting your first job, figuring out flat-shares, or just trying to make sense of it all—life can feel like a whirlwind. And epilepsy? It can make things a bit more complicated. But you’re not alone.
We know that epilepsy doesn’t hit pause when you’re trying to live your life. That’s why we’ve created this space just for you. It’s packed with trusted info to help you understand your condition and how it might show up in different parts of your world—from healthcare and meds to dating and driving.
And if you ever need to talk things through, The Youth Voice Network’s here for you— and so are spaces like The Channel, where you can connect, share, and feel heard. No judgement, just real talk and support that gets it.
We’ve got your back with everything from practical guidance to emotional support. Whether you’re wondering how to manage your meds at uni, what your rights are at work, or how to talk to your mates or partner about epilepsy—we’re here to help you figure it out.
You’ll also find guidance for parents and carers, because as your independence grows, their role shifts too—and that’s a journey for everyone.
This isn’t just about managing epilepsy. It’s about living your life, your way. So dive in, explore, and reach out when you need to. We’re here to help you take on the world—one step at a time.
