WHAT WE ACHIEVED THIS MONTH

March 2021

We are proud to report that as a result of our meetings with Judith Cummings, (MP for Bradford South), Bradford District and Craven Clinical Commissioning Group are now using the ‘Right Care Toolkit’ devised by SUDEP Action, to guide their discussions and support their commissioning decisions regarding epilepsy.

Furthermore, the CCG’s Chief Officer, Helen Hirst, has also shared the above information with their providers of epilepsy care which include Airedale NHS Foundation Trust; Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and the Ridge Medical Practice, so that they can share this with the people who use their services.

This alone will potentially save lives and prevent unnecessary deaths to SUDEP.
