UK charity Epilepsy Action has launched its new Celebrate range. The range of favours, invitations, donation envelopes and pin badges means couples can now support the charity as part of their wedding or civil partnership celebration.
Grainne and Jonathan married in 2009 and chose to involve Epilepsy Action in their special day. Grainne explained: “Epilepsy Action provided support for Jonathan’s family when he was first diagnosed with epilepsy at the age of eight. It was a great comfort to know that someone was there at the end of the phone offering advice and reassurance when needed.
“We decided to give each guest an Epilepsy Action charity pin as a memento and we also placed cards on each table informing people of our chosen charity. We are both delighted that someone will benefit from our decision to donate to such a worthy charity and hope more will choose the option we did in the future.”
To buy wedding favours from the Epilepsy Action Celebrate range or for more information visit www.epilepsy.org.uk or call 0113 210 8800.
