On the 30th September, Jenny and her team of walkers set out to walk around Attingham Park in Shrewsbury, in aid of raising awareness of Non Epileptic Attack Disorder (NEAD).
“I was told in February this year I have got NEAD, having been suffering for 11yrs and been treated really bad in hospital as they don’t understand the condition. I wanted to do this walk to raise more awareness on NEAD to help others understand and help deal with this horrible condition” says Jenny.
“The walk went really well and is a beautiful place. There was 5 of us all together and we did just over 10miles.”
Jenny was able to raise just under £600 for FND Action and more importantly, was able to raise much needed awareness of NEAD. She also sold awareness wristbands and details of how these can be purchased online can be found on our Awareness Toolkit page.
Below are some photos taken along the walk.
Thank you to Jenny and her team for helping raise awareness, and for raising a fantastic amount of funds to assist FND Action with their advocacy work.
