I AM writing on behalf of the 150 British Epilepsy Association branches across the country to ask for support.
GMTV has chosen BEA as one of five charities for this year's "Get Up and Give Appeal."
The appeal will be broadcast throughout the week commencing July 13 and BEA will be primarily featured on the first day.
That's why we want to hear from any readers who have the condition themselves, or who have an interest in epilepsy or would like to become a local fund raiser.
Ultimately, we would like support in any shape or form. Anyone who wants more information or advice about any aspect of epilepsy can call our freephone Helpline on 0800 30 90 30.
PHILIP LEE, Chief Executive, British Epilepsy Association, Anstey House, 40 Hanover Square, Leeds, LS3 1BE.
