Hello in May 2011 I will be embarking on an extreme challenge to support Epilepsy Action. This unique triathlon style challenge begins with a two day trek to the summit of the highest mountain in South East Asia, Mount Kinabalu. The second leg of the challenge is to cycle 170km through the Crocker mountain range. Finally I will be white water rafting down the Padas River.

I am financing this trip myself and therefore all money goes straight to Epilepsy Action. 

Epilepsy Action aims to improve the quality of life and promote the interests of people living with epilepsy.

Epilepsy Action aims to

• Raise and maintain awareness about epilepsy and about Epilepsy Action’s work.
• Educate people about the facts about epilepsy and improve their understanding of the condition.
• Bring about permanent change for the social and medical benefit of people with epilepsy.
• Provide advice and information about epilepsy that is relevant to peoples’ needs and that is accessible in terms of location, availability and cost.
• Promote all types of research into epilepsy and undertake non-laboratory social and medical research into epilepsy.
• Maximise Epilepsy Action’s resources by developing its fundraising activities and income consistent with its immediate and long term financial needs and using its resources effectively and efficiently.
• Engage with the Education, Healthcare and Social Care sectors to ensure that epilepsy is fully understood and the needs of people with epilepsy are supported.

Please could you support me in raising money for this worthwhile cause?
