Appeal on behalf of the British Epilepsy Association (Registered as a Charity in accordance with the National Assistance Act 1948) by a Consultant Psychiatrist

The British Epilepsy Association was founded in 1950 to help and advise the 250,000 people in this country who suffer from epilepsy, and to enlighten the general public about this condition. Educational courses are arranged and speakers provided to overcome the ignorance and prejudice which cause most of the social problems for epileptics.
More than 1,000 people each year come to the Association's welfare department. Social clubs are established for the severely handicapped and a summer holiday is organised for young children.
