Give Epilepsy Action Government funding

Additional Information

Over half a million people in the UK suffer from epilepsy. This condition still carries a terrible stigma. Every day 87 people are diagnosed with epilepsy. This is 31,755 per year. 1 in 103 people in the UK have epilepsy. Source of information:- www.epilepsy.org

PLEASE CONSIDER GIVING SOME GOVERNMENT FUNDING TO THIS ORGANISATION.

Despite constant research and investigative work, there is still no cure for epilepsy. To date this work is funded by charitable donations. There is currently no government funding for this organisation.

Epilepsy takes no prisoners on people affected by it. Notable subjects who had epilepsy are:- Prince John (youngest son of King George V), Aristotle, Caligula, Caesar, F.D. Roosevelt to name but a few. I do not name persons still alive suffering from epilepsy for obvious reasons to the individuals.
