I’m taking part in Walk for Epilepsy around Australia because...

Living with Epilepsy, the drug regime, and the health consequences brings lots of daily challenges.  I have a very supportive Family and Tribe, for whom I am very grateful.  However not everyone has this support. Im raising funds to help Epilepsy Foundation assist and support other people living with Epilepsy who need help.   This walk will be a great challenge for me.  Brene Browne says "We can do hard thing" So thats my mantra!

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. Thank you in advance for your generosity, it means a lot!

Walk For Epilepsy 2024

Saturday 26th Oct
This years fundraising has come to an end. I want to thank all my fabulous tribe, who donated. We reached our $2000 goal.  I am so grateful for all the support.  
I scrapped over the 100km goal, with the help of Daisy Dog and Mary, and Peanut Dawg and Lily and Cody.  Who walked the final kilometres for me, as I recuperated from surgery. 
Thanks again everyone. Well done Tribe!

Thank You

Thanks to all the lovely people who donated today, Whos donations will be matched by Nexon, and helped me almost achieve my $$ goal. 

Double Donation Day

Thursday 17th Oct
Today is double Donation day which means

Double your donations and double your impact today!

  • $10 becomes $20

  • $50 becomes $100

  • $125 becomes $250

Unfortunately I have stopped walking/riding because I am rehabing from surgery, However, my daughters are going to finish the challenge for me by adding in their walking.  And my rehab floor cycle has a pedometer, so I will chip away at the Km. 
Today is the day that your donation can make the biggest difference.  Donate today!  Love Jules

Rail Trails

Friday 9th Aug

My planned activities for this years fundraising is to do interesting bike rides.
My first was 2 sections (20km) of Great Victoria Bike Trail, near Mansfield Vic. 
Todays was a 20km section of Snowy Mountains NSW Rail trail. 
Its been beautiful scenery, so different from my mining town home in rural NSW.
