#PurpleDay 2025 Raising awareness of #Epilepsy

This is immensely important because charities still need money, and so few people have change on them that bucket shaking is going out of fashion. If you had anything to donate, and a share to give this post, I'd be hugely grateful.

Today is Purple Day® - our biggest fundraising day of the year. Can you help continue our vital services and supports in communities across Ireland? Learn about our work and make a donation via our website below. Together, we can achieve a society where no person's life is limited by epilepsy.
