MEET THE TEAM

OUR AMAZING TEAM OF VOLUNTEERS WHO HELP TO RUN HOPE

​Our team is made up of parents of children affected by epilepsy, alongside epilepsy professionals, including medical experts from Great Ormond Street Hospital, University College London Institute of Child Health, St George’s Hospital London, Cambridge University Paediatric Society, and genomics specialists from Genomics England. We also have support from Young Epilepsy.

In addition to this, we are fortunate to have a wide range of professionals volunteering their time, including specialists in education, marketing, and finance. We are also supported by an incredible group of young people, many of whom have epilepsy themselves, who actively help with the charity’s work.
