A BIG well done is in order for Hermitage Academy for winning their 'Edward' award for supporting children with epilepsy (last week's Helensburgh Advertiser).

Epilepsy is such a serious condition that rarely gets any media attention and I hope that the school winning this award and it being recognised in the Advertiser will help raise awareness of the condition.

I think that it's important to highlight that some people live with this condition every day of their lives and we more than likely won't know about it.

Raising awareness can only be a good thing.
