As a squad we are fundraising for Epilepsy Ireland by doing what we do best - squats, squats and more squats!
Thank you for visiting our fundraising page. We are fundraising for Epilepsy Ireland as we really want to support the 45,000 people living with epilepsy in Ireland, one of whom is our team mate Skye.
Epilepsy is caused by a discharge of electrical energy in the brain, but the way this affects each person is unique. With your help, Epilepsy Ireland can continue to 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. And you will also help support the running of Teen Time, a support group for young adults and teenagers just like Skye and other people our age who live with epilepsy daily and find great support in getting to link in and chat with people who also have epilepsy just like themselves and helps make them feel a little less alone.
We will begin our 24 Hour Squat Challenge in Dublin Airport at the start of our trip to Glasgow in Scotland and will finish the challenge at home back on our pitches in Naomh Olaf. We aim to do as many squats as we can each day as a squad in lots of different places on our trip and back home with Caroline and the rest of our mentors ensuring we don't cheat on a single one - we'll have the best glutes in the club after this!
Please give us all the support you can by cheering us on and by making a donation. Simply click the Donate button above. All donations are processed securely and are received directly by Epilepsy Ireland.
