Every year it is “Purple Day” on 26th March. It is a day where people with epilepsy (or know someone with epilepsy) bring epilepsy awareness and usually wear something purple. This year, to celebrate this day, I decided to do a 7 mile walk from house to a park and raise money for a charity called Epilepsy Action.
The day started off well. I put on my purple hoodie and hat then filmed the start of my walk for all of my supporters. I started walking and listened to some music at the same time.
At a certain point I did have to check my google maps though. Oh dear, I’ve gone the wrong way! Just meant I had use Google Maps to get me back on track. I was able then able to make the rest of the way there.
The park had a lake, so I watched the ducks swim. The only problem is by the time I got to the park it started raining. I was wanting to do a live stream but my hands were too cold
I walked round the park then came out again. On the way home I decided to take a different turning and make my walk longer (all the more exercise). It was was an easier route that I was used to.
If you would like to donate money to the charity it is still open at https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/martin-hossell
