Petition Fund free fall alarms for people who suffer from epilepsy or seizures
I think it’s absolutely disgusting that people who suffer with epilepsy and seizures aren’t entitled to a free fall alarm. As an epileptic who is alone with her 3 children regularly, I am full of anxiety. I was recently denied a fall alarm, and people like myself can’t afford them.

This has to change.
I have been diagnosed epileptic for 7 years now. I am on edge, especially being a young mother. This could be helped if I had a fall alarm but I have been denied one as I wasn’t seen as enough of a risk. I’m ashamed, upset and scared and things have to change.
