“It is estimated that over 250,000 Australians are living with epilepsy and approximately 3% of Australians will experience the condition at some point in their lives.

Epilepsy Action Australia is leading the way in ensuring those affected have the skills and knowledge to live the very best life possible. Unfortunately many of these are children and teenagers so we also strive to give parents, teachers, doctors and nurses the confidence, resources and information they need to support their specific needs.

As the leading and oldest provider of epilepsy services nationwide, we focus on improving self-management skills, increasing wider public understanding of this devastating condition, and are at the forefront of partnering and funding research into interventions and treatments.

All of this contributes greatly towards our aim of opening more eyes to this ‘forgotten’ disease and ensuring that those with epilepsy are able to live meaningful and independent lives, free of stigma and misunderstanding.
