Stand Up 4 Epilepsy and 'Go That Extra Mile'

Have you always wanted to support a charity, whilst trying to get healthier but never really had the time or the inclination to do so.  Well now is the time do to just that and it couldn’t be easier.

All we want you to do is to cover a mile in some format, whether it be walking, running, cycling, swimming, rowing, skating -  you name it and give Fable Epilepsy Charity £1. That’s right, just £1 for one mile.  It’s as simple as getting off the bus one stop early for a few days, or you can be as strenuous as you want and kick start your new healthy lifestyle by joining a gym or challenging yourself in someway.

Along with our friends at Woodlands Fitness Centre we want to raise £456,000.00 which is the same number of epilepsy sufferers in the UK today!   We are launching a year long campaign starting during National Epilepsy Week 17th to 23rd May.  As  mentioned there are 456,000.00 or 1 in every 131 people in the UK who has Epilepsy, but it doesn't only affect the sufferer it affects the whole family unit.

Your support will enable Fable to continue their valuable work supporting epilepsy sufferers by awarding grants for equipment, raising public awareness through education, promoting Vagus Nerve Stimulation Therapy, providing information leaflets, offering valuable support and advice through the National Patient Support Network.

As you can see, we have some fantastic support from our celebrity patrons, who are proud to be associated with this campaign.
