THIRD PARTY AND COMMUNITY EVENTS
The Community Partnership programme enables you, your business and community groups to join in the new wave to change the face of epilepsy by organizing events that are fun and meaningful to you. Your event is independent of our agency initiatives, you can become a Proud Supporter and 'change the face of epilepsy forever'.
Holding your own event is a great way to build community spirit and raise awareness for Epilepsy Durham Region. We can’t make the change all by ourselves, we need your help!
Funds raised through this programme enable Epilepsy Durham Region to continue its efforts to:
- Provide leading edge educational training for educators
- Offer comprehensive and credible information on epilepsy, treatment and awareness
- Provide support to individuals living with epilepsy, family and friends
