Join #TeamPossible for the 40 miles in 40 days Challenge and help raise life changing funds for children with epilepsy.

Together, we create possible.

Epilepsy can be one of the most frightening and isolating conditions a young person can experience. The loss of any sense of safety, trapped in an unpredictable world, not knowing when their next seizure will happen. All this takes its toll on a childs mental and physical health, and they miss out. You can help change that.

Take on 40 miles in 40 days and fundraise to help improve research, treatment and practical support for children and young people living with epilepsy.
