We the undersigned petition the governments of the UK to recognise that epilepsy specialist nurses are integral to the care of people with epilepsy. We want a commitment to protect and support those nurses already in place. We need a strategic plan to increase the number of posts to the minimum required to serve the population of epilepsy in the UK.

The momentum behind this petition highlights how many of us value the quiet, essential work performed by our epilepsy specialist nurses. Reaching one hundred signatures provides us with a clear threshold to demand the attention of those in government. Please bring this effort to the notice of your personal network so we can reach this objective today.

Need more support not less. My daughter relies on her nurse for everything.
TOTAL MADNESS. Do not cut these posts.
Living with epilepsy is hard enough without having support stripped away from us. These nurses are vital.
They r lifesavers seriously. How can they even think about cutting funding for this?
Keep them in their jobs. They know exactly how to help when things go wrong and we have nowhere else to turn.
