My Story

When my daughter Rosie was 16 weeks old she had her first seizure. It was absolutely terrifying, there is nothing like watching your baby become unresponsive and struggle to breathe.

Since then she has continued to have seizures, and currently she is having many clusters of seizures on a daily basis at just 8 months old. We are still fighting for a full diagnosis and we are early on in our journey with epilepsy, but would like to help fund this cause to help families like ours.

I'm taking on Epilepsy Society's Challenge 100 - committing to completing 100 miles in 100 days! Please help me to raise as much as possible and help those who need it most.

1 in 100 people in the UK are living with epilepsy. Three people are diagnosed with epilepsy every day and a third of people with epilepsy do not have access to effective treatments.

A £5 donation could help distribute tailored information about epilepsy, ensuring the first five leaflets are free

A £20 donation could ensure that someone who desperately needs to talk about their epilepsy can call Epilepsy Society's helpline

A £50 donation could help forward Epilepsy Society's world-leading research projects, leading to more accurate, personalised treatment

Thank you for your support! Wish me luck!
