A schoolgirl is determined to raise awareness of the dangers of epilepsy after the death of a close friend.
Jessica Bexfield, 15, who helps look after her mother and father, started to go to Young Carers where she met Ben Belverstone, and they became like brother and sister.
Sadly, Ben suffered a fatal epileptic seizure and died at his home in Southend in June. The young Prospects College student was just 18 years old.
The Epilepsy Network is a worldwide community of people with epilepsy, family and friends, uniting to talk about their experiences, learn information about epilepsy, ask questions and so much more! Don’t let epilepsy defeat you, let it inspire you!
