Epilepsy is the most common serious brain disorder in Australia, affecting up to an estimated 800,000 Australians during their lifetime. Currently at least 20,000 children and adults in Western Australia are living with epilepsy. This unpredictable and often debilitating condition can severely disable people in terms of their capacity to live meaningful, independent lives. These events will aim to improve understanding & awareness, increase knowledge and skills of people supporting those with epilepsy and enhance people’s capacity to self manage their epilepsy.

Please find attached the flyers in relation to the events that will be held in Albany. More information about the program can also be found at
