We are seeking a confident trainer, to join a charity that provides world leading support for people with epilepsy through Care, Research and Advocacy.

The role involves extensive UK travel, wherever possible we use a trainer living closest to the training venue, (occasional overnight stays may be required), and delivery of training online either online via MS TEAMs or face to face.
