Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!

This March, myself & my two sisters, Maria & Kelly are taking on Epilepsy Ireland’s walking challenge & committing to walk 200 miles to raise awareness & some money for this brilliant charity.

Since my son developed epilepsy at age 11 (3 years ago), I’ve seen first-hand how much support Epilepsy Ireland gives to families like ours during a really challenging time. They’ve been such a source of information, reassurance and support for us, and I really want to give something back.

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.
