Shooting Stars

Story

Our team is back for the 2nd time and our WHY hasn't changed, if anything, it's grown. We've spread it across our extended family and friends, our sports clubs and work places to continue sharing awareness.

Our Star was diagnosed in 2022 a few days before her 9th birthday.  Star and majority of our extended family, have a little more of an understanding over Star's super power and if our family wasn't big enough already, we have an even bigger army to support her, with our family at Epilepsy Qld.

The growth of awareness can help recognise early signs of Epilepsy and gain the control to manage an action plan sooner rather than later.

    Epilepsy Queensland Inc

    For more than 50 years, Epilepsy Queensland has been assisting Queensland families touched by epilepsy. Services include education, counselling, information services, children’s and family support programs, specialised training programs, support groups and advocacy. Epilepsy directly affects around 2% (1 in 50) of the population and still remains one of the most misunderstood conditions in today’s society. 28,740 children and adults in Queensland with active epilepsy which is more than muscular dystrophy, cerebral palsy, Parkinson’s disease, motor neurone disease, and several others combined. Anyone can be diagnosed at any age and Epilepsy Queensland helps to replace the fear and uncertainty with knowledge and empowerment. 60 people per week receive an epilepsy diagnosis. According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), it is doubtful there is any other medical condition so universally neglected due to a combination of social stigma, low profile and lack of resources. WHO recognises epilepsy as the world’s most common serious brain disorder. Please help us to be the beacon of hope for people living with, and impacted by epilepsy in Queensland.
