Seven-year-old Launceston Church Grammar School student Eleanor Crooks will be donning a purple mask and cape, and her classmates will be sporting purple hair and wristbands, to mark Purple Day for Epilepsy.
Epilepsy Tasmania is encouraging people to better understand the condition and to show their support for friends and colleagues living with epilepsy by supporting Purple Day for Epilepsy Awareness on 26 March. Other events will also be held throughout the state during March.
A media opportunity has been organised where you can photograph or film Eleanor and her classmates at Launceston Grammar School, 10 Lyttleton St, East Launceston, on Monday, 19 March at 10.30am.
