In the past 21 years, over 21,000 people with epilepsy have died suddenly and died too young. SUDEP Action’s Prevent21 campaign shines a light on this shocking disaster. With a significant change of attitude, culture, and action towards epilepsy - many lives CAN be saved. Knowledge saves lives.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit this JustGiving page.

Family and friends of Stephen Usher will be walking in his memory to raise money for Epilepsy Bereaved and also to raise awareness of SUDEP (Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy).

SUDEP is the cause of hundreds of deaths of young people in this country every year. Young people just like Stephen, healthy and full of life, with great potential but living with Epilepsy. We lost Stephen aged only 16 to SUDEP.

You can learn more by visiting www.sudep.org ,the website for the charity Epilepsy Bereaved.

Now that you are here please make a small donation, perhaps just £1 but please also encourage all your contacts on email, all your friends on facebook, and anybody with access to the internet in any form to visit this site and do the same. You will almost certainly know somebody who has epilepsy but you may not know that they do have epilepsy. It is so often a hidden condition but knowing the risks of SUDEP may just reduce the terrible statistics.

Let's see just how far and wide we can spread the word.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please donate now then email all your friends to do the same.
