Toby's big challenge, 12 January 2022
Walk 50 miles this February to support people living with epilepsy.

Story

I'm walking 50 miles in February for Epilepsy Action (just 50! If needs be I'd walk to the other end of the earth for both of my kids). 

Why? Well, our kind, clever and funny eleven year old Toby was diagnosed with epilepsy at the end of 2021 and is now starting a new journey on medication that will help reduce and hopefully stop the seizures that he has every day.

He and his ten year old brother Ben are joining me in completing the challenge. 

Epilepsy Action does important work into this still relatively unknown condition, providing amazing support to families like ours.

If you can donate, however little or large, please do with our massive thanks. But most importantly,  please take five minutes to learn about epilepsy and what to do if someone has a seizure in front of you. You can find out more here: https://www.epilepsy.org.uk/info/firstaid.

Much love
