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

I live with Epilepsy everyday and understand the toll that it can take on one’s life. I want to raise money and spread awareness for the people who experience it. 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, or join in yourself! Thank you in advance for your generosity, it means a lot :)

My story

Monday 31st Aug
I was diagnosed with generalised Epilepsy at 15. It came on suddenly and jolted mine and my families lives. I was unable to get my license with everyone else, no longer qualified for roles upon finishing school as I was planning, & medication was lots of trial and error as we knew no triggers. There were many ups and downs , many tests and trials & and lots and lots of support from loved ones. I am doing this challenge as I am now three years seizure free on medication and do not take it for granted. I am walking to support everyone who lives with epilepsy or has a loved one living with epilepsy.
