Foreword extract:

You’re about to meet some inspiring people. They come from around the world and they all have epilepsy – the most common serious brain disorder…

Live Beyond Epilepsy is an epilepsy awareness and education initiative from UCB. It brings together a series of innovative programmes designed to improve the lives of people with epilepsy, those who live with them and those who care for them. The campaign aims to:

• Empower people living with epilepsy to take control.
• Encourage physicians to see their patients beyond epilepsy and in the context of their life needs and dreams.
• Look to the future to improve the perceptions and understanding of epilepsy for the next generation.

In the booklet you will meet a number of people living with epilepsy including Hanna, a law student from Germany, Audrey from Ireland and Monica from Venezuela. Each person has a unique and inspiring story to tell either in words or picture.

The booklet Live Beyond Epilepsy – Be Inspired is available only as a pdf download (2.3 Mb).
