Do you want to know what strength is? It's Ellie personified. Imagine getting ready for school one day and then having a seizure out of the blue. She has gone on to take everything in her stride: hospital visits, more seizures, concerned family members 'acting different' around her (wanting her to be more cautious), medication, adjustments and much more. She is such an incredibly little lady and continues to make us proud every day.

We want to do this challenge for Ellie. Ellie is surrounded by people that love and care for her and we all want to support her by raising awareness and much needed funds for this charity.

Epilepsy is a common health condition, that too many people know nothing about. Most people see epilepsy as an inconvenience. Flashing lights and falling over. Not an unpredictable and potentially fatal condition.

Epilepsy Action is creating a world without limits for everyone affected by epilepsy, connecting people with others, and providing support and information you can trust. We’re calling out the misunderstanding, prejudice and barriers that stop people with epilepsy living their best life.

Epilepsy says stop. We say go.
