March Walking Challenge

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!

This March, I'm walking and raising funds to support people living with epilepsy, and their families.

Epilepsy is characterised by a discharge of electrical energy in the brain, but the way this affects each person is unique. With your help, Epilepsy Ireland can provide support tailored to the needs of each person and family living with epilepsy.

Your support will ensure that people with epilepsy and their families receive the information, advice, and support they need through a network of 11 Community Resource Officers. You will ensure public awareness of epilepsy is improved and stigma and misunderstanding is alleviated. You will help fund vital research projects to find new ways to manage and treat epilepsy and reduce its impact on people’s lives.

I hope you can help me by making a donation. Simply click the Donate button. All donations are processed securely and are received directly by Epilepsy Ireland.

Day 1 – Walking in Memory of My Brother 💜

Sunday 1st Mar
Today I completed my first 5km for the March Walking Challenge. I’m taking part in this challenge in memory of my brother, who sadly passed away in 1992 after an epilepsy seizure in his sleep. Losing him changed our family forever.
Every step I walk this month is for him, and for the families across Ireland who are living with epilepsy today. I want to help raise awareness, support services, and hopefully prevent other families from experiencing the same heartbreak.
Thank you to everyone who supports, donates, or shares my page. It truly means so much. 💜
