Daily encouragement

A message for you today

Words of hope, confidence and self-worth — because an epilepsy diagnosis should never define a person’s future.

“I deserve care, understanding, and inclusion.”

In Kiswahili: “Ninastahili kutunzwa, kueleweka, na kujumuishwa.”

Ask the TEA assistant

Please don’t send detailed medical history, ID numbers or photos of children by WhatsApp. WhatsApp is run by Meta, and your messages and number will be handled under WhatsApp’s terms as well as TEA’s privacy notice.

WhatsApp is a way to contact the TEA team during working hours. It is not a 24/7 helpline or emergency service. Mon–Fri, 8:30 AM – 5:00 PM (EAT). We aim to reply within one working day.

Emergency? If a seizure lasts more than 5 minutes, or the person is badly hurt or has trouble breathing, call 999 or 112 now.
