MICE (Mental Health Intervention in Childhood Epilepsy) (Audio only)

We chat with Sophie Bennett about the MICE project, which focuses on mental health support for children and young people with epilepsy. Sophie, a clinical psychologist and researcher, shares how mental health support can make a big difference. We know that getting an epilepsy diagnosis can be tough, and this episode offers expert info and connection through shared experiences.
