Student fundraiser

Student fundraiser


Purple Raid – Epilepsy Society’s brand new student MEGAraid!

Always wanted to dress up as an 80’s rock star?
Show off your best air guitar?
Sing ‘Purple Rain’ at the top of your lungs
AND raise funds for a fantastic cause? 

Purple Raid encourages you to do just that.

Who? Students and RAGs across the UK.
When? 26th March 2012 - the same date as Purple Day, the international epilepsy awareness day. (Don't worry if this falls out of term time - just send us an email!)
Where? Your preferred location! You can hold your raid on campus, in your local town/city or a town/city further afield.

Grab your course mates, housemates, team mates and take to the streets for one of the most enjoyable and worthwhile events in the university calendar.


What we provide

We can kit you out with t-shirts, buckets, balloons and send you a Purple Raid pack to get your raid off the ground.

We will also provide you with factsheets for how you can extend your raid into a themed union night or campus wide event


How to take part

Sign up is simple! Just get in touch with our fundraising team and let us know that you want to join in! We will then add you to our list of Purple Raid participants.

Call us on 01494 601 414 or email fundraising@epilepsysociety.org.uk.


Are you a UEA student?


UEA are turning Purple Raid into a campus-wide event, and you can get involved. Talk to your RAG for more information.

Can't make it to Purple Raid? How about the UEA skydive day? Again, get in touch with your RAG for full details.
