#ALifeInterrupted

The #ALifeInterrupted report and campaign films

Our #ALifeInterruped campaign ran throughout 2020 and 2021, highlighting the disruptive, interruptive impact of living with epilepsy, the inequalities in research funding, and the need for people with epilepsy to have their say in shaping the future of research. 

To stay up to date with our future campaigns and activities, please sign up to our E-Bulletin.  

READ THE REPORT
Our ‘Shaping the Future of Research into Epilepsy’ report highlights alarming inequalities in research funding and calls on people with epilepsy to take action now to shape the future of research.

The figures uncovered in this report are stark; research into epilepsy is chronically underfunded and lags behind other neurological conditions affecting far smaller patient populations. Read the full findings here.

WATCH THE FILMS
“The videos are honestly the best I have seen regarding epilepsy in young people…”

Need a way to explain to your friends, family or manager about how epilepsy interrupts the lives of ordinary, extraordinary people? Look no further – our beautifully crafted #ALifeInterrupted films provide all the inspiration you need to encourage people into action.
