Fundraising events

Do you fancy a fun and exciting challenge with the added bonus of making a difference at the same time? At Epilepsy Action we have a huge variety of fundraising events you can get involved in, whether you’re an elite athlete or a complete beginner.

Epilepsy Action provides full fundraising support with resources and advice, as well as helpful hints on how to raise money.

The money you raise from taking part in a fundraising event for Epilepsy Action will enable us to continue providing advice and support to the 456,000 people in the UK with epilepsy, as well as their friends, families and carers. You’ll also be helping us raise awareness of a condition that is often misunderstood.

What do you get in return? A once-in-a-lifetime experience, an opportunity to challenge yourself and the sense of personal achievement that comes from knowing that you’ve made a difference.

So go on… sign up today!
