Purple Day

You're invited to join #TeamPossible

Help stop the fear of seizures.

Purple Day is on 26 March

Join to be part of the campaign throughout March 2026   

You can help stop the fear of seizures by fundraising this Purple Day. Together we can create a future where every child with epilepsy can live seizure free.

Purple Day is a key time to raise awareness of epilepsy and the challenges children and young people living with epilepsy face every day.  

For Purple Day, hundreds of individuals, schools, community groups, and businesses are coming together to join #TeamPossible. Let's unite and support children living with epilepsy. 

No child should live in fear of their own body. Seizures can be frightening and they can leave children in pain, feeling confused and alone.​ Nearly every hour, another child or young person in the UK is diagnosed with epilepsy.​
