June Massey, Epilepsy Action 

June Massey’s association with Epilepsy Action began in 1993 after her son’s diagnosis of epilepsy. She has been a Trustee of the charity since 1998 and has used her experiences of being the mother of a young person with epilepsy and her 25 years as a specialist teacher to work with parents, educators and staff at Epilepsy Action to raise awareness of the impact of epilepsy on learning.

June has been invited to speak on this topic at CPD days in school, Further Education and Higher Education settings and conferences for specialist teachers and other epilepsy charities.
