Hi I’m Elisabeth, I’m 22 and was diagnosed with epilepsy at 16. I love spending time with my family and my miniature dachshund, Bruce! I’ve recently begun training to become a primary school teacher. I’m passionate about supporting young people with epilepsy, as I understand the challenges it brings. As an ambassador for HOPE, I aspire to raise awareness about the vital support they offer to children and their families as well as supporting young people with epilepsy. HOPE has been a big support for my family and I, providing us with an anti-suffocation pillow and advice in recent years.
