I'm proud to be raising funds for Young Epilepsy, running my first half-marathon at the age of 50. Those who know me, know that running is NOT my favourite thing!

Young Epilepsy support children, young people and their families living with all forms of epilepsy, and the many challenges that come with that.

My daughter, Holly, has Absence Epilepsy since the age of 4: the past few years have been extremely difficult for her as we've tried to find the right medicine and she's had to adapt with various strategies to live with absences.

We hope that you give what you can to help us raise funds to support people like Holly and families like us.
