Ways to Fundraise

The Daisy Garland is a non-profit making charity, working exclusively to support children who suffer from drug-resistant epilepsy. We do not receive any government funding so rely solely on the kindness and generosity of people like you to help children like Josie Mae and Gabriel.

Prior to receiving our Daisy monitor we lived in constant fear of missing a life-threatening seizure and having to set half hourly alarms to check on Josie Mae. Now we have a monitor we can rest properly knowing it will alarm when she has a seizure. The monitor also displays her oxygen levels letting us know if we need to give rescue breaths. This monitor has taken the heavy weight off our shoulders, conquering our two biggest fears.

 

 

The Daisy Garland have us hope when we needed it most, and because of their ketogenic support they ultimately gave us our funny, charming, confident, crazy boy back. There are no words to describe how thankful we are for this amazing charity, they changed all of our lives.

    Dexter’s mini Duathlon

    Our 4 year old daughter Frankie has drug resistant epilepsy and her 6 year old brother Dexter has set himself a challenge to complete a children’s Duathlon to raise as much money as possible for this amazing charity. We are currently in the process of applying for a grant for Frankie to receive a night time monitor but this would only be possible with money being raised for the amazing Daisy Garland Charity.
