Epilepsy Ireland

Epilepsy Ireland (previously Brainwave - The Irish Epilepsy Association) was established in 1966 by a group of individuals.

Epilepsy Ireland's vision is to achieve a society where no person's life is limited by epilepsy.

From 2017 to 2021, we aim to protect and maintain existing services and activities, while also developing in new directions to ensure we continue to meet the needs of people with epilepsy and their families in Ireland. We have identified six Strategic Aims which together form the framework for the Plan which is available on www.epilepsy.ie.

• Providing support and information services
• Communicating, raising awareness and advocating about epilepsy
• Providing training and education
• Undertaking and supporting epilepsy research
• Raising the necessary funds for our work
• Maintaining best-practice standards in our governance, quality and financial management
