Mental Health Support Call
Managing epilepsy can be overwhelming, seizures can be unpredictable, and your ability to work, exercise or drive may be impacted. Add to this that the stigma is often worse than the disease.
Your donation means someone with epilepsy can reach out for professional help and support when things are tough, because no one should go it alone.

Epilepsy Management Plan
Your donation means a person living with epilepsy can have a customized person-centered Epilepsy Management Plan (EMP) created or updated by our staff.
An EMP means that those around you will know what to do in the event of a seizure.
EMPs can be shared with your school, workplace and sporting or social clubs, because no one should go it alone.
Knowing what to do can save lives. It also makes life easier, eases stress (which can be a trigger for seizures) and helps to end the stigma that is sometimes worse than the condition itself.
