If you can donate, share our fundraiser, or simply help spread the word, we’d be so grateful.

More than two years ago, Epilepsy Australia began advocating for a National Senate Inquiry because we believed the experiences of people living with epilepsy deserved to be heard at the highest level. We, The Epilepsy Centre are part of Epilepsy Australia
and today, the final report has been tabled.

27 recommendations.

A National Epilepsy Action Plan. Better diagnosis and care pathways. Greater awareness. Epilepsy Nurses and navigation. Peer support. NDIS reform. Research. Workforce development. Better access for regional, rural and remote Australians.
For The Epilepsy Centre, this is a very special moment.
But today belongs most of all to the people and families who trusted the Inquiry with their stories — sometimes stories of extraordinary hardship, grief and loss.

The report has heard them.

We at The Epilepsy Centre (Epilepsy Association of SA & NT Inc.) want to thank those families for speaking up! Thank you sincerely to Kym, Rebecca, Carolyn, Tara, Kat, Haloti for your incredible passion and strength to speak on behalf of your beautiful children.

Please know that what you have done will make a difference to so many families in the years to come.

Now the task is to ensure those voices translate into action.
We are deeply grateful to former Senator Wendy Askew, whose advocacy was instrumental in bringing this Inquiry into being, and to Senators from across the Parliament who listened carefully to our community.

Today, that conversation has become a roadmap for reform.

Unfortunately, our Peer Support Group Meeting scheduled for this Wednesday 19th August at 11am to 12.30pm at the Southern Venue, Aberfoyle Community Centre, 1 Jessica Street, Aberfoyle Park will need to be rescheduled due to unforeseen circumstances. We apologise for any inconvenience caused and will notify you of our next PEER Support Group date and location.

Face to face Peer support meetings organised by our Registered Nurses is incredibly important for many individuals looking for a safe, structured and care focused get together to talk about issues impacting individuals and/or their loved ones as well as the chance to share their lived experiences.
