Derby woman gets a mauve on to raise purple pounds for epilepsy charity
A Derby woman is bringing some colour to town to celebrate the fifth annual Purple Day, the international day to raise awareness and funds for epilepsy. Mary Dixon, who has epilepsy, is organising a purple-themed day at the Cathedral Café in Derby. The day will raise money for Epilepsy Action, the UK’s leading epilepsy organisation. The charity is calling on people across the UK to ‘get a mauve on and raise purple pounds’ by creating special purple-themed events and challenges.
