Story

This October, I'm taking part in the 100 Miles in October Challenge to help raise awareness and life changing funds for children and young people with epilepsy.

As you may know, after having a 20 minute long seizure in March, a hospital stay and various tests, Roman was diagnosed with Focal Onset Epilepsy. He now has to take a lot of medication, twice a day every day & there are many precautions we now need to take with him that means our lives have been flipped upside down. I want to do something to prove to Roman that I’m SO proud of how he’s dealt with everything … and continues to do so every day!

It would mean so much to me if you were able to 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

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.
