Here in the UK, as winter draws in, the nights are dark and the snow is falling you could be forgiven for the urge to curl up in front of the fire and watch a good dose of daytime television.

During October, Epilepsy Action took part in 22 radio interviews, and 36 online features.

Epilepsy Action has been approached by a documentary production company who are developing a film for Channel 4 focussing on young carers in the UK. The company are looking to work with children aged 9-14 years who are just about the only carer for another family member with epilepsy.
