Our volunteers have been making a difference in the lives of those living with epilepsy or a seizure disorder through their generous contributions of time, skill and commitment. However there are still thousands of us still at risk. There is still so much to do and there are so many ways to help. Epilepsy Durham Region relies on volunteers with a wide variety of skills.
