During April we hosted our first ‘Epilepsy and Driving‘ and ‘Epilepsy and Travel‘ Talk and Support groups.
We are really enjoying holding ‘theme specific’ groups where you can have a more focused chat around different subjects.
Keep an eye out on our virtual groups to see all of the other sessions we will be holding throughout the year!
Hot topics
These are the topics that came up the most in this month’s groups:
- Employment
- Telling others about your epilepsy
Positive stories
Group leaders and volunteers shared some of their feedback with us:
‘At the end of the meeting one of the attendees thanked everyone who attended and said we are an amazing group of people.’
‘Everyone who attended the group welcomed the opportunity to meet others.’
‘The group ended on a really positive note with many people talking about how beneficial they found the opportunity to talk, share and listen to other people. The group really demonstrated the benefits that peer support can have.’
