This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

We can't accept your petition because changing the guidance would be the responsibility of the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), not the UK Government or Parliament.

You could start a new petition calling for more funding or an awareness campaign around diagnosis and care for people with epilepsy.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
