This Purple Day, I'm taking part in the 26 miles in 26 days Challenge to help raise awareness and life changing funds for children and young people with epilepsy.

This cause is close to my heart, in November, my beautiful boy, Alex, had a seizure whilst on holiday in Budapest, and sadly then had further seizures following our return home. Young Epilepsy have been brilliant, doing a sleep EEG and providing support for us following his diagnosis of epilepsy.

Whilst he continues to do me proud with how he has dealt with this, I want to do him proud by walking 26 miles this March and raising funds to provide more lifesaving tests and research.

Please make a donation to my page today. If you'd like to join me in the challenge then you can sign up here: https://youngepilepsy.beaconforms.com/form/7ad50ea1

Purple Day on 26th of March is the International Day of Epilepsy awareness. Epilepsy can be one of the most frightening and isolating conditions children can experience. Help show them that we're on their team.

Show your support and help create a future where young people with epilepsy are heard, and they get the support they need, when they need it, no matter what.
