#IAM1IN100

EYR along with the Canadian Epilepsy Alliance (CEA) and epilepsy agencies across Canada launched this campaign in March 2020 as a way for those diagnosed with epilepsy to show what it means to live with epilepsy and that they are defined by more than the disease.


Download the material below and help expand the representation of what it means to live with epilepsy.


If you have epilepsy, download the sign that says “I have epilepsy and…” In the blank space provided, you can write about how you’re feeling or how you’re handling having epilepsy. You can also write about your hobbies, interests, skills, and life beyond epilepsy.


If you know someone with epilepsy, download the sign that says “Someone I care about has epilepsy and…” In the blank space provided, you can write about their hobbies, interests, skills, and life beyond epilepsy.

The campaign highlights the range of experiences of living with epilepsy and that people with epilepsy are more than just their epilepsy.


HERE'S HOW YOU CAN PARTICIPATE


  • Download and print a sign
  • Fill in the blank space
  • Take a photo while holding the sign
  • Upload your photo to social media using #Iam1in100 (for people with epilepsy) and #1in100.
  • Feel free to tag us  on Twitter (@epilepsyyork), Instagram (@epilepsy_york) & Facebook (@epilepsyyorkregion) or use the hashtag #epilepsyyorkregion.
  • Email your picture to info@epilepsyyork.org so we can add it to our  photo gallery.


  

Please note, by sharing your photo with us, you understand that we will share the photo on our website and social media platforms.  No names will be published only pictures.  Thank you.
