Well done and thank you to the family and friends of Ross Aikenhead who raised over £6.5K at a Golf Day in his memory. “We had a full field of 112 golfers competing. We also had a raffle, an auction and plenty more going on. In total, we have raised over £6.5k.” #SUDEP

This story in The Metro highlights the importance of always talking to health professionals for specific advice relating to YOUR epilepsy and how to manage it. Disinformation and not sharing evidence-based info on SUDEP and epilepsy risks can kill.
