Story

I was diagnosed with Epilepsy over 3 years ago now after having my first seizure at home out of the blue. I am medicated but still have seizures from night time ones to fully Grand Mal seizures during the day at home or at school which as the older I am getting are becoming worse. My last one I had two in a row holding my breath while I was having a seizure. I have an Epilepsy Nurse who is fantastic and helps me. She comes into the school and educates them on how to help me while I am at school if I have one. I would like to raise as much money as I can to help other children like me who have been diagnosed with Epilepsy and need help to understand it. 

On the 26th March 2022 its Purple Day and I have chosen to do planking for 2 minutes for 5 days to raise money for this charity. 

My Mummy will record me doing this every day for the  5 days to prove that I have done it. 

£18 can pay for a helpline advisor to measure someone coming to terms with their diagnosis. 

£48 can help give a new local support group the resources they need to be there for more people. 

£100 can send kids' packs to 47 children helping them to learn about their epilepsy ad stay safer. 

£450 can recruit and train volunteers to raise vital awareness of epilepsy in schools, care homes and workplaces.
