Encephalitis Awareness #BrainWalk Month

BrainWalk is returning in February to celebrate the 10th annual World Encephalitis Awareness Day!

World Encephalitis Awareness Day, taking place on the 22nd Feb, is the global awareness day for people who have been directly or indirectly affected by encephalitis.

Founded by The Encephalitis Society in 2014, it has reached over 236 million people through media features, events and social media over the years.

It is their hope that it will play a leading role in their mission to increase global awareness of encephalitis and therefore saving lives and building better futures.

How you can get involved

Join their 2023 fundraising challenge and walk, jog or run as many steps as you can during February. You can join BrainWalk by yourself or as part of a team with your friends, family or colleagues. Register for Brainwalk 2023 here.

Supporting this Charity is something personal to me, as well as many of the beautiful people I have had the opportunity of meeting and knowing through the healing journey. Find out more about why in my longer post here.
