My Goal

I am making every step count this February

This February, I will take part in BrainWalk and walking as far as I can to improve my own health and wellbeing and help save lives! I have Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome so walking can be difficult for me, so getting behind me with fundraising will really help. 

I am raising money for the Encephalitis Society, a cause close to my heart.
Encephalitis is a neurological condition that can be devastating. Here are five facts you may not know: 


1. Encephalitis is inflammation of the brain.

2. It is caused by an infection or through the immune system attacking the brain.

3. Anyone can be affected by encephalitis – no matter their age, gender or ethnicity.

4. It has a high death rate and survivors are often left with an acquired brain injury and life-changing consequences.

5. In some cases, encephalitis can impact on mental health, causing difficult to deal with emotions and behaviours, and can lead to thoughts of self-harm and even suicide.

One person is diagnosed with encephalitis every minute across the world, and life for them and their loved ones will never be the same again.

Every donation I receive will go to the Encephalitis Society, helping accelerate understanding and awareness of encephalitis and ensuring that those affected by this serious neurological condition get the crucial help and support they need. Please help if you can.

I am raising awareness for brain encephalitis because it’s a condition I struggled with in July 2022. It resulted in many weeks in hospital and it’s a very rare undiagnosed condition so I want to make a difference to peoples lives.
