About Intractable Epilepsy Charity
The charity funds prescription costs of medicinal cannabis for those with Intractable Epilepsy when prescribed by a specialist clinician on the GMC register and in line with NHS guidance.
Many of these children and young adults suffer hundreds of devastating seizures every day. Nearly all have exhausted the traditional pharmaceutical anti-epileptic drugs. Medicinal cannabis is the only medicine that helps. Medicinal cannabis has been legal in the UK since 2018, but access on the NHS remains blocked. So the families have to cope with the immense strain of fundraising up to £2,000 a month to access it privately and deal with the daily care of their sick children. Imagine if this was your child. Please help us to help them. Your donations will support the families to continue getting the medicine they so desperately need.
