Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
John and I are doing this in memory of my Mum Barbara Marren. My Mum was diagnosed with Epilespy many years ago before there was any real public awareness of the condition. During these times there was a real stigma attached to those with the disease so for that reason it was rarely discussed. I'm pleased to say that through the work of great charities such as Epilepsy Action, (http://www.epilepsy.org.uk) things are improving, although they still need the support of you and I to help them continue their work.
Epilepsy Action is the largest member-led epilepsy organisation in Britain, acting as the voice for the UK's estimated 600,000 people with epilepsy, as well as their friends, families, carers, health professionals and the many other people on whose lives the condition has an impact.
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, however small, it will really make a difference.
Thanks for your support.
Vicky and John
