About the ACT Walk for Epilepsy

Join us as we hit the pavements of Canberra and surrounds this October!

Whether you’re touring your local neighbourhood, heading out to Namadgi or Tidbinbilla, or gearing up for a cycle, every kilometre counts.

How to register

To join the fun, simply hit the ‘register’ button above. You’ll gain access to our Walkers Facebook group to share encouragement and progress, and can buy your very own Walk for Epilepsy T-shirt to show your support.

Why you should fundraise

1 in 25 Australians will develop epilepsy in their lifetime. For many people, epilepsy can bring with it unique challenges, from frequent doctor’s visits, scans and tests to stigmatisation and isolation. We’re seeking to show our support for people living with epilepsy everywhere, and to raise vital funds to support those people through every stage of their journey.

Your support can make a real difference. Thank you for all that you do!

Now -- let’s get walking!
