Story

Join me in supporting Epilepsy Action!

Hi everyone. As a lot of you may know back in April 2021our little girl Martha was diagnosed with Generalised Genetic Epilepsy. Since then it's been a difficult journey but we are now on the right path with the right medication to keep it well managed. Me and Sean Collings have decided on March 22nd 2025 we are going to do a sponsored walk with Martha and the girls to raised money for Epilepsy Action.

Purple day which it national Epilepsy day is March 26th.

We would love to make this a day where friends, family and even our four legged friends come together spend time together and raise money for this amazing charity. And wear something purple.

The route is not long but it gets us out in the fresh air and it's manageable for Martha to do it.

We will do the walk from wynyard woodland park to the A689 and back which is approx 5.5 miles.

We will pack a picnic and we want to create memories x

626,000 people in the UK are living with epilepsy and 79 people are diagnosed every single day. I'm fundraising for Epilepsy Action this Purple Day to help make sure people with epilepsy continue to get the support they need, when they need it most.

Your contribution will help more people take control of their epilepsy. Whether you donate £5, £50 or £500, every little bit helps. Thank you for your support.
