About us

Young Epilepsy is the children and young people’s epilepsy charity. Our purpose is to create a society in which children and young people with epilepsy are enabled to thrive and fulfil their potential. A society in which their voices are respected, and their ambitions realised.

We work with children and young people across the country, as well as many of those people and organisations who shape their lives - parents, health and care professionals, researchers, teachers, policymakers and more.

Informed by young people and drawing on our strong legacy of expertise in education, health

and research, we have developed and published our 2020-2025 strategy. This focuses our work around 3 key offers: health and research, voice and support and St Piers special education. Within these key offers we aim to:

  • Coordinate research that improves diagnosis and treatments, and deliver cutting-edge health services
  • Campaign for children’s rights, supporting them in school and college and providing innovation tools, information, and practical help for living day-to-day life
  • Provide an innovative and creative environment for children and young people with epilepsy, autism, and severe learning difficulties.
