Why I’m a monthly regular donor

“I donate to SUDEP Action because they have been a lifeline for my family and I during the most devastating time of our lives. My brother, Jordan, passed away suddenly on 24th April 2025, at just 30 years old, due to SUDEP—something we had barely heard of until it changed our lives forever.

The shock and heartbreak have been overwhelming, and like many families affected by SUDEP, we’ve been left with so many questions. SUDEP Action has offered us compassion, understanding, and crucial support through their counselling service, helping us feel less alone in our grief.

We’re so grateful for the guidance and comfort we’ve received, and we support SUDEP Action so that more research can be done, awareness can grow, and—most importantly—lives can be saved. Supporting this charity is our way of honouring Jordan and helping others who may one day face this tragedy.”

-Chloe Slaney, SUDEP Action Supporter

By Direct Debit

SUDEP Action relies on your donations and your support for everything we do. Every donation, large or small, is precious to us because we do not receive any Government funding.

Our work makes a difference to people’s lives and that’s down to you.

Direct Debit is the most popular way to give regularly, either monthly, quarterly or yearly. Just follow the link below to set up – select ‘regular donation’ and fill in the form. We will notify you to confirm the direct debit has been set up.

By Standing Order

To make a regular gift by standing order contact the fundraising team for our bank details.

Regular giving

Regular giving through a Government approved ‘Give as You Earn’ agency

This is a popular way to make regular donations as it is tax efficient. Donations are taken from your pay before tax but after National Insurance. While Gift aid cannot be claimed, many employers offer incentives for GAYE donations, often matching the donation made. Your employer may already be registered with a GAYE agency.  If your employer is not, you can use this link to view the list of approved agencies
