Events

September 1st – 30th

Step 4 Epilepsy WA is our virtual step challenge where our mission is to collectively walk 25 millions steps by the end of September. Participants from all over WA are encouraged to register to join us and walk 10,000 steps a day or set a personal goal.

By stepping up and participating, you’re helping to bring epilepsy out of the shadows and you are supporting your local epilepsy association, which has been on the ground and working hard in WA for over 60 years.

This event aims to increase public understanding of epilepsy and will make a significant and meaningful difference. Funds raised will help Epilepsy WA to continue providing vital support services for the WA community.

All participants raising over $150 will be given a free t-shirt and the highest individual fundraiser will win a trip to Broome!

Let’s see how far we can go for Epilepsy WA and epilepsy awareness!

Seizure Safety Month

October 1st – 31st

October is Seizure Safety Month for Epilepsy WA. It’s a month dedicated to raising awareness of how those living with this common condition can reduce their risk of epilepsy-related harm.

This inaugural awareness month also focuses on the importance of the WA community learning seizure first aid, and empowers people who are living with seizures with the necessary knowledge and resources to navigate life as safely as possible. 1 in 25 people will be diagnosed with epilepsy and 1 in 10 people will have a seizure in their lifetime.

This month-long campaign aims to make seizure safety everyone’s business.

To find out more about the resources available to support you or a loved one this Seizure Safety Month visit our website.
