I’m running 50 miles in May for Epilepsy Action 💜

And honestly… this is personal.

I was diagnosed with epilepsy in 2019.

And just like that — everything changed.

Independence. Confidence. Work.

The way I saw myself.

Epilepsy isn’t what most people think it is.

It’s not just flashing lights and dramatic falls.

It’s the unpredictability.

The medication side effects.

The fear of not knowing when the next seizure will hit.

The quiet ways it chips away at your life.

And yet… people still don’t see it.

That’s why I’m doing this.

This year, I’m also stepping onto the stage as a Miss Great Britain Surrey finalist — and no, it’s not just about the glam.

It’s about having a platform.

Because I remember wishing I could see someone like me —

someone living boldly with epilepsy, proving life doesn’t just stop.

So now… I’m becoming that person.

I’m using this challenge and my Miss GB journey to:

Speak up

Challenge stigma

Show that epilepsy doesn’t get to define the limits of your life

Epilepsy says stop. I say go.

Running 50 miles isn’t just a fitness challenge — it’s a statement.

Every mile is a reminder that we’re still here, still pushing, still showing up.

Through my art, my story, and everything I share, I’ve realised this isn’t just about me.

It’s about the thousands of people living with epilepsy every single day.

This isn’t about winning a crown.

It’s about what it stands for.

Visibility. Representation. Change.

Because after nearly losing my life to seizures…

staying quiet feels scarier than being seen.

If you donate, share, or even just take a moment to understand —

you’re helping build a world where no one has to face epilepsy alone.
