Epilepsy Action and MedicAlert have renewed their long-standing partnership, working together to help more people with epilepsy feel safer and more confident in emergencies. The collaboration aims to expand access to medical ID services, improve emergency support, and empower people with epilepsy to live with greater independence.
A partnership supporting people with epilepsy
For over 60 years, MedicAlert has been providing life-saving medical ID services, allowing first responders to act quickly in an emergency.
The medical ID charity gives people with all medical conditions confidence to live everyday knowing that they can communicate their conditions in any situation.
The partnership provides 20% off MedicAlert IDs to the Epilepsy Action community and offers an additional 20% donation to Epilepsy Action with each purchase extending its support further.
Thousands more people in the UK could benefit from a MedicAlert ID and the services that it provides.
Exclusive discount for the epilepsy community
As part of the renewed partnership:
- The Epilepsy Action community can receive 20% off MedicAlert IDs
- MedicAlert will also donate an additional 20% from each purchase back to Epilepsy Action, helping fund vital support services
This makes it easier and more affordable for people with epilepsy to access reliable identification that could protect them during seizures or emergency situations.
Why medical IDs are crucial for people with epilepsy
Wearing a MedicAlert ID can provide peace of mind by ensuring that:
- First responders immediately know that a person has epilepsy
- Emergency staff can access essential medical information
- People feel more confident and supported when out in public or travelling
- Families and carers know their loved one has an added layer of protection
Leadership voices on the partnership renewal
MedicAlert CEO, Rob Burley, expressed his thoughts on the renewed partnership, saying:
“We are very excited to extend this partnership with such an important charity. Epilepsy Action provides support to so many people living with epilepsy, and we are proud that we can help ensure people’s medical conditions are always communicated in an emergency, even when they cannot communicate for themselves.”
A stronger future for epilepsy support
Together, Epilepsy Action and MedicAlert aim to continue improving access to essential tools, services, and life-saving information, ensuring more people with epilepsy feel protected, informed, and empowered every day.
