I want to raise money and make a difference for people living with epilepsy. Please help me by giving whatever you can using the 'Donate' button. The more people that know about the walk, the greater the impact, so please also spread the word by sharing our page with your friends and family.

My Story - Daniel Close
Tuesday 19th Sep Recently, I had my first seizure in 3.5 years. This had been the longest period seizure free since being diagnosed with epilepsy in 2012. The physical recovery is one element, though the mental recovery is underestimated and an ever present challenge for epilepsy sufferers - depression, shame, loneliness and isolation are all potential side effects - some of these I've faced before and during the recovery of my most recent seizure.Thank you to my Sponsors
