The Epilepsy Information Network (EIN) in the North West is working to provide information for people with epilepsy, their families, carers and friends in hospitals and health care settings throughout the region. Many of these services are run by NSE volunteers. If you would like to visit one, get some information and talk to a volunteer, please contact 01494 601389 or regional manager, Alison Grimshaw, for clinic days and times.

Raising awareness locally
With the help of our volunteers we take information to public places such as shopping centres and give talks about epilepsy to local conferences and meetings of health professionals, carers and other community groups. Do you know a group who would like information or a talk or would you like to help us? Alison would be pleased to hear from you.
