Show Notes

In this heartfelt episode of The Black Country Blokes, we shine a spotlight on Dravet Syndrome, a rare and life-threatening form of epilepsy that affects children from infancy. Host Lee Cadman opens up about his personal motivation to take on the Every Day in May Challenge—a daily commitment to raise money and awareness for Dravet Syndrome UK, inspired by the incredible journey of a young warrior: Calla-Rose.


Lee shares why this cause is so close to his heart, what the challenge involves, and how you can get involved to help make a real difference. Whether you're a parent, carer, advocate, or just someone who wants to help, this episode will inspire you to take action and support families living with the daily realities of rare diseases.



🧠 Let’s raise awareness. Let’s raise hope. Let’s raise funds.
