Free eye and dental care for people who suffer with epilepsy

Closed 462 signatures

What the petition asks

To provide people with epilepsy to right to access free glasses and free dental care. Epilepsy is something that can’t be prevented, yet many with epilepsy walk around with broken glasses and teeth as a result of falling during a seizure.
Most don’t work because they can’t so don’t have funds to fix the essential things in their lives.

Having been witness to someone who suffers with epilepsy I want to make a small change for them.
