This is National Epilepsy Week. Epilepsy is much more common than people think.
More than 300,000 adults and 75,000 children in the UK have this condition.
The society has a helpline where you can talk to a trained operator or simply ask for an information pack on 01494 601400 and a website www.epilepzynse.org.uk
