The 2007 annual..walk for epilepsy awareness
Posted: Tue Jun 19, 2007 2:51 am
I'll post all the info re this years epilepsy walk in this forum as i dont want to clogg up the general discussion forum.
Many thanks to Nicks board for allowing us to heavily promote the first awareness walk in 2006 it was a huge success.
Several different things will take place in 2007 at my request i have asked the epilepsy foundation to not call the walk the joffa walk for epilepsy awareness, its my belief we can and must get all states on the same day to walk for epilepsy awareness giving it national attention.
I was chuffed at the response with associating my name with last years walk it has paved the way for future awareness programmes.
This years walk will be during the football season we're looking at a date somewhere late August..and we're looking at doing something at federation square, with printed balloons for the kids and epilepsy awareness brochures for all who wants one.
This year we will be joined by Peter McKenna who has been touched by the tragedy of epilepsy, Peter has agreed to go public with his story and his presence on the walk will be huge in our attempt to get the message out to all sections of the community.
We invite everyone to become involved and spread the word about this very important and misunderstood illness.
cheers
