Epilepsy ACT: Make March Purple 2024

Join Epilepsy ACT and organisations across Australia as we turn the country purple throughout March in support of the 65 million people worldwide living with epilepsy.

Make March Purple is an Australia-wide campaign supported by epilepsy organisations nationwide, aiming to raise awareness and support for the 280 Australians diagnosed with epilepsy every week.

Join us on March 26 for World Purple Day, an international day of awareness for people impacted by epilepsy.

Throughout March, you can get involved in various ways:

Host your own event at home, school, or work.

Set yourself a personal challenge.

Share your purple and share your story with us and the world.

Illuminate Purple: During March, iconic landmarks worldwide will light up PURPLE. Let us know if you have a tree, a building, or even a windmill you can light up purple.

Thousands of Australians have had their lives turned upside down by epilepsy. While it's not always possible to stop the seizures, we can all help end the stigma. Join us as we Make March Purple and turn things around.

‘Make March Purple’ this Purple Day on Tuesday, 26 March! Registrations are now open – sign up now via the Make March Purple or Epilepsy ACT websites.
