Purple day 2021
Campaign by Epilepsy Society (RCN 206186)
The 26 March is Purple day, a day to raise funds and awareness of epilepsy. Theres no escaping the fact that Purple day may look a little different this year. However, in 2021 there are still so many ways you can make a difference.

Story

The 26 March is Purple day, a day to raise funds, awareness and get people talking about epilepsy. In 2021, support for Purple day is more important the ever.

Having recently been diagnosed with epilepsy our 14-year-old daughter Téa is responding positively to medication.  

Téa collapsed in our home and suffered an unexpected seizure in September.  We were then sent for tests and EEG which confirmed Tea has epilepsy.  She suffered three further seizures until the medication she was prescribed had its desired effect.

Without the help of the medical team and ongoing research into the causes and treatments of epilepsy we would be much more anxious and fearful for our daughter’s wellbeing.

We (Tommy and Tracey) will be running 10K on 26th March 2021 and Téa will be baking for a local virtual coffee morning.  We would be so very grateful if you are able to support this amazing cause - not only for ourselves but for everyone with epilepsy.

Thank you so very much and all our love Tommy, Tracey and Téa xxx
