Three Peaks Challenge
Deducible
On Friday 7th September, I will be setting off to complete The Three Peaks Challenge!
24 Miles, 11,178 foot in just 24 hours!
I will be climbing Snowdon, Ben Nevis and Scafell Pike! All funds raised will be going to Epilepsy Research UK - A charity very close to my heart!
They support and promote basic and clinical scientific research into causes, treatment and prevention of epilepsy.
More than 600,000 people in the UK have a diagnosis of epilepsy.
Approximately 30% of these will not respond to medication.
Even if seizures are controlled, people often experience other problems related to the condition such as memory loss, and anti-epileptic drugs often have adverse side effects.
Their research is concentrated on key areas that will benefit people with epilepsy, for example: what causes epilepsy, why in some cases it is drug-resistant, improving diagnosis and treatment, minimising treatment side effects and improving quality of life.
Epilepsy Research UK run up to 9 NEW research projects every year!
Neuroimaging research, Neurology and Neurosurgery have benefited from improvements due to crucial research carried our by Epilepsy Research UK, which may lead to an altered practice worldwide.
