National Epilepsy Week 15-21 May

As a nine year-old, seeing a young friend having a violent fit was the reason Graeme, our Director, got into First Aid and may ultimately be the reason why Crown Safety exists!

Epilepsy is a neurological condition that affects the brain and the nervous system and is covered by the Equality Act 2010.  The condition can affect people for only a portion of their life or it can be lifelong.  Because of the varied nature of the condition an awareness of epilepsy and the actions you can take if you are present during a seizure is incredibly useful for those who work in all walks of life.
