About this service
Childhood epilepsy can be frightening, isolating and often a misunderstood condition. At Young Epilepsy work with children and young people with epilepsy, to ensure their voices are heard and their rights are protected.
We campaign for children and young peoples rights. We deliver health services, training and research that improve diagnosis and treatments. We support children and young people throughout school, college, and university. We provide information, friendly advice, and practical help for living everyday life.
We offer one to one and group support for children and young people affected by epilepsy. The work is carried out on teams and zoom, with some face-to-face events in London.
If you are interested in our service and are worried about a child or young person affected by epilepsy, please contact us.
