Epilepsy Ireland's vision is to achieve a society where no person's life is limited by epilepsy.
We provide a wide range of information and support services from headquarters in Dublin and from regional offices in Cork, Dundalk, Galway, Kerry, Kilkenny, Letterkenny, Limerick, Sligo and Tullamore.
These services include a nurse-led helpline, information leaflets and booklets, support groups, one-to-one support, community outreach, information seminars and awareness days.
Epilepsy Ireland also runs an epilepsy-specific pre-employment training programme for young people with epilepsy called Training For Success, in association with the IT Sligo and FAS.
We also provide education and training services to health professionals, teachers and employers, while the Epilepsy Ireland Research Funding Scheme, established in 2008 is now supporting five important epilepsy research projects at Beaumont, UCD, DCU, Trinity College and the RCSI. We have also been instrumental in both lobbying for and providing funding for Community Epilepsy Specialist Nurses in Dublin and Sligo.
