Media Volunteers

Here at Epilepsy Action we get a number of requests each week for from the media, particularly from women's, health or family magazines, who wish to interview people with epilepsy who have a story to tell.

At the moment, we're particularly looking for...

• women with epilepsy with a story to tell, anywhere in the UK
  We're looking for women who have a story to tell about their epilepsy and issues like hormones, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), contraception, pre-conception counselling, pregnancy, menopause and/or particularly hormone replacement therapy (HRT)

If you have experiences, either positive or negative, about which you would be happy to talk to the media then please complete our online form.

Please don't forget to give us a daytime contact number or email address if you have one.

These stories are a good way to raise awareness and educate people about epilepsy and our services, and help other people with epilepsy and their families realise they are not alone.

Please be aware that, although our press office can provide journalists with information about epilepsy, ultimately, we have no say in whether an article is printed and little control over the final printed version of an article.
