It's time to face the flames and put your bravery to the test by taking on our adrenaline fuelled challenge - the FIREWALK! Celebrate bonfire night a week early this October and walk on hot coals!
Our FIREWALK is the perfect excuse to step out of your comfort zone as you walk barefoot over red-hot embers in aid of St. Michael’s Hospice. Firewalking is a practice that has been used for centuries to test physical and mental limits and explore the relationship between fear, fire, and belief.
On the night you will meet with a fire walking expert from Firewalking UK who will offer you top tips and training, ensuring that you take on your challenge without experiencing pain or injury. All you need to bring is your game face and plenty of courage!
The challenge costs just £30 and spaces are limited so make sure you sign up today! All we ask is that you raise a minimum of £100 in sponsorship, if you reach the target then you will recieve a FREE St. Michael's Hospice t-shirt.
Following your walk, you will receive a glass of Prosecco, medal and a FIREWALK certificate.
