Step 4 Epilepsy WA encourages West Australians to walk 10,000 steps a day during September and promote their efforts on social media to help spread awareness of the common neurological condition which is often hidden and not spoken about. 

Win a trip to Broome for two by fundraising for Epilepsy WA’s support services for the 1 in 25 people who will be diagnosed with epilepsy.  

Registration for this new annual event to help bring epilepsy out of the shadows and reduce stigma in WA is free a Step 4 Epilepsy’s website. 

Participants can share their epilepsy support journey pix and videos on social media with the hashtag: #step4epilepsywa 

Special free event T-shirts will be given to steppers who raise more than $150 during September, and an online tracker will show the collective distance walked by participants to show just how far people with epilepsy and their supporters can go! 

Tens of thousands of West Australians are impacted by epilepsy daily and Epilepsy WA offers monthly support groups, seizure first aid training, in-house nurse services, access to the latest epilepsy information and resources plus much more.
