Today, we stand together to raise awareness about epilepsy, a condition that affects nearly 50 million people worldwide. By wearing purple and participating in events, we can help educate others and reduce the stigma surrounding epilepsy.

Epilepsy can impact anyone, regardless of age, and while there is no cure, there are effective treatments available.

Let's spread knowledge and support for those living with this condition!
Together, we can make a difference!

Sunday was #EpilepsyAwarenessDay and the final #MentionableMonday article in our #DownSyndrome series focuses on the co-occurrence of these conditions

Thanks for the support for my #purpleday #epilepsyawarenessday release support. ยฃ100 raised for epilepsy.org.uk. Not too shabby as I was a bit late getting my act together. Next year shall be organised & get some other artists involved for a compilation. Also what came home to me was how little awareness was out there in social media & the press about this #purpleday & #epilepsy in general.
