Epilepsy Society (ES) is a national charity which aims to make a lasting contribution to the treatment and understanding of epilepsy. We do this by raising awareness, undertaking medical research and by providing specialist medical services, respite, residential care, information and support.

At our site in Buckinghamshire, ES offers world class medical facilities where we see thousands of patients. We provide the best in assessment, diagnosis and treatment and our reputation as a centre of excellence is recognized by the World Health Organisation.

Our residential and respite care offers integrated health and social care for people with severe and complex epilepsy. Our unique combination of medical expertise, social care and commitment to maximising the life potential of each and every client makes living at ES a great experience. ES also provides domiciliary care and support to clients living in their own home.

Our Information Services provide leaflets relating to many aspects of epilepsy from diagnosis to employment and our team of Epilepsy Information Network (EIN) volunteers help to provide local access to information about epilepsy via information stands in over 150 hospital clinics. We also have information about epilepsy on our website and provide a specialist website for health professionals.

Our accredited confidential helpline receives calls from people with epilepsy, and from their family and friends, GPs, nurses, pharmacists, employers and schools, all wanting to know more about epilepsy. For those people who want to connect with others with epilepsy we host a web forum that currently has over 5,000 members.

We want people affected by epilepsy to know that we are here so that they don't feel like they have to deal with their epilepsy on their own. We understand their experiences and through our expertise, research and experience we want to provide support and hope for the future.
