1 in 10 people will experience a seizure in their lifetime.

Over 28,740 people in Queensland currently live with a diagnoses of epilepsy. 3,000 more will receive their diagnosis this year. Interestingly this is more than muscular dystrophy, cerebral palsy, parkinson’s and motor neurone disease combined!

The World Health Organisation (WHO) recognises epilepsy as one of the world’s most common serious brain disorders.

Epilepsy Queensland brings hope to those living with or impacted by epilepsy throughout Queensland. We provide psycho-social supports, education and training, and policy / advocacy work to ensure the voice of people with epilepsy is heard.

People we work with often describe the receiving of a diagnosis as being ‘thrown in the deep-end.’

“As a first time mum AND first time having any contact with epilepsy (let alone my little newborn!) it’s safe to say we were thrown in the deep end. Epilepsy Queensland has been the life ring that kept us afloat”

Joanna, mum of Theo who lives with epilepsy
