The telephone and web-site help line are the first points of contact for most people seeking help, advice or information. It operates during normal working hours from Monday-Friday and we are seeking funds to offer a service in the early evening and week-ends. The service will eventually be fully bi-lingual.

Epilepsy Wales was set up as a charity in 1986 to help people with epilepsy in Wales, their families and carers.

Epilepsy is formally defined as a tendency to have recurring seizures and these take many forms, depending on which part(s) of the brain are affected. They may happen once a year, or many times a day.

See our Epilepsy Wales Leaflets for more information. Some of these leaflets are also
available in Welsh, see under Ffurflenni Epilepsi Cymru
