The Garland Family and The Daisy Garland Charity

The Daisy Garland Charity was started in 2004 after the death of Daisy Garland from SUDEP(sudden unexpected death in epilepsy patients). Sadly Daisy was only six years old when she died. Her parents Sara & David Garland found that nothing helped or came close to helping until in January 2000 they discovered the Ketogenic Diet, a drug-free treatment which gradually reduced the frequency and severity of Daisy’s seizures.

In the UK there are over 60,000 children under the age of 16 suffering from epilepsy, and a large number of these children have drug resistant epilepsy. The Ketogenic Diet can dramatically recue the severity of all types of seizures, but, due to a lack of NHS funding, this diet is not widely available in the United Kingdom.

The Daisy Garland charity has been funding specialist dieticians since 2006. Their dieticians work within the NHS system initiating and monitoring the Ketogenic Diet. They have placed dieticians in London (Tooting), Nottingham, Plymouth and Bristol.

Aydenne Simone & the Jazz Culture Band raised £66 for The Daisy Garland charity on 2nd October at Wimbledon Studio Theatre. Lets see if we can triple it by Christmas. Just send your donation Ref. Aydenne Simone and we will keep a tally right here for you to watch!
