Australian Women with Epilepsy is the first Australian charity created to support women with epilepsy, built by women with epilepsy, for women with epilepsy.
Our vision is to connect and improve the quality of life, mental health and services for all women living with epilepsy in Australia, and eliminate stigma associated with epilepsy within the wider community via accessible education and awareness. All profits from our online shop feed back into our community.
With these we are working to ensure that:
- All women have access to peer support services, wherever they are in Australia
- Women with epilepsy are empowered via validation, education and connection
- Accessible and tailored epilepsy resources are available to women living with epilepsy
- Communication channels between the epilepsy community and health professionals are improved
- Understanding of epilepsy in the wider community is improved
Our current activities include:
- Online and face to face social outreach and peer-support groups for women living with epilepsy
- Online education and events (webinars, info-sessions, info sheets, eNewsletters and social media)
- Knowledge sharing and community awareness programs across our media platforms and affiliate platforms
- Producing tailored health promotion and educational materials
