Connect with others who truly understand what you’re going through. Our private Facebook community support group is a safe space where you can share experiences, ask questions, and find encouragement from patients, families, and specialists.

Coming soon: Patient Support Service

Watch this space for a support service. Part of our mission is to ensure that patients and their families are supported through the journey of epilepsy surgery.

We plan on offering a support service run by volunteers and patients who have also experienced epilepsy surgery. 1:1 therapy and counselling.

We’re here to help you feel informed, empowered, and connected. Don’t hesitate to reach out—you’re not alone.
