This is a group of individuals, dieticians, doctors and nurses who are actively interested and involved in the use of the ketogenic diet, predominantly in its use in the treatment of epilepsy.

The group was set up in 2002, at a time when it was recognised that few centres had resources or expertise in the use of the diet.

The group meets on a regular basis to discuss experience and share ideas, and has been involved in the organisation of study days to promote awareness and education.
