ALL WEEK EVENTS
Epilepsy Action fundraisers are holding Wonga Walks across the UK. Formerly known as the Out in the Open Walks, Wonga Walks have been established to mark Epilepsy Action’s diamond jubilee year. Join thousands of people up, down and across the country and walk to raise awareness of epilepsy and help us walk the equivalent of Timbuktu and back! – That’s the equivalent of 9,240 miles. You can organise your own event or come along to one already happening in your area. View our up to date list of walks or find out about how to organise your own event here: http://www.epilepsy.org.uk/wongawalks/regional
