Epilepsy Wales exists to support adults and children with epilepsy, their families and carers. We want to raise awareness, dispel stigma and discrimination and to support people with epilepsy to fulfill their potential. We offer fieldworker support, training services, helpline advice and meet-ups.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; line-height: 140%;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; color: #1c1c1c; line-height: 140%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">On 25 September&nbsp;2011, we'll be doing a sponsored walk from Rhymney Bridge&nbsp;to Caerffili Castle, a journey of around 18 miles covering the whole of Cwm Rhymni/Rhymney Valley. Some will do the whole journey whilst others will do what they can.&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; line-height: 140%;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; color: #1c1c1c; line-height: 140%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; color: #1c1c1c; line-height: 140%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; line-height: 140%;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; color: #1c1c1c; line-height: 140%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">We aim to raise as much money as possible for Epilepsy Wales, the charity for epilepsy sufferers, their carers and families in Wales. As some of you may know, we did a similar thing last year, walking the 27 miles from Heath Hospital, Cardiff, to Prince Charles Hospital, Merthyr Tydfil, raising almost &pound;6k in the process (Owain is pictured with Glamorgan cricketer Mike Powell opposite, with a cheque for almost &pound;5.5k, minus the cut for the good people at JustGiving). </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; line-height: 140%;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; color: #1c1c1c; line-height: 140%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; line-height: 140%;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; color: #1c1c1c; line-height: 140%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">This was brought about after&nbsp;five year old son, Owain, was diagnosed with benign epilepsy. Although this is one of the milder strains of epilepsy, there are young children, teenagers and adults with far more severe cases. </span><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; color: #1c1c1c; line-height: 140%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">All contributions, large or small, are gratefully received for this important, yet largely unpublicised charity. PLEASE TICK THE GIFT AID BOX.&nbsp;Diolch yn fawr/Many thanks.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; line-height: 140%;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; color: #1c1c1c; line-height: 140%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; line-height: 140%;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; color: #1c1c1c; line-height: 140%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman';">Ceri &amp; Jayne</span></p>
