Story

#PURPLEAVOCADO for Purple Day!

Purple Day is a grass roots movement founded by a young lady named Cassidy Megan in the U.S.A.  Matthew's Friends were proudly the first U.K. charity to partner for Purple Day with the lead Purple Day organisation, The Anita Kaufman Foundation!

Our charity supports families affected by complex epilepsy.  Both children and adults who have drug-resistant epilepsy may benefit from a medical ketogenic diet and Matthew's Friends provide research, information and useful resources to help give families the best chance of success when following the diet.

Why #purpleavocado?  Well avocados are a fantastic source of healthy fats for a ketogenic diet and we want to applaud the mighty avocado on this special day!  Avocados can be calculated in to a ketogenic meal by a specialised dietitian who manages the epilepsy patient meal plan.

So please grab your #purpleavocado flag and wave it for Purple Day, people with epilepsy around the world and Ketogenic Diets!

Visit our website for more information and to buy your #purpleavocado flag for Purple Day!
