PURPLE PARTICIPANTS

9

Make March Purple is an annual initiative that raises awareness and funds to support people living with epilepsy in Australia. In 2026, the theme is ‘Muck Up for Epilepsy’, which challenges participants to step outside their comfort zones, get a little messy, and stand with the 270,000 Australians whose lives are mucked up by epilepsy. 

Take on the Purple Muck Challenge or create your own purple-themed fundraiser to show your support and help spread awareness. All funds raised are donated to the development and delivery of vital epilepsy support services, education and training, and research into finding a cure.
