KARL WILSON’S FUNDRAISER FOR NARCOLEPSY IRELAND
Karl Wilson held a fun filled pajama themed evening with tabletop board games to mark the first World Narcolepsy Day. Guests were invited to make donations either on the night, or online via the iDonate fundraisers that Karl set up. At the end of the day, it was a fun evening hanging out with some wonderful people.

The 14th European Narcolepsy Days (END) conference took place in November 2023 in
Leiden, the Netherlands, with a wide range of participants: researchers; neurologists and other health care professionals; representatives from the pharmaceutical industry; patients with narcolepsy and idiopathic hypersomnia (IH); their relatives and parents of children with narcolepsy.
During a patient session organised by eNAP (European Narcolepsy Alliance for Patients), the participants discussed the challenges faced by people with narcolepsy/IH at different stages of life. In addition to the participants from the conference, several Dutch narcolepsy patients and parents of children with the disease also contributed. They were divided into 10 groups, with two groups in each of the five subjects: newly diagnosed; parents of children; teenagers; young adults and adults.
