What is a charity firewalk

A firewalk is the ultimate mind-over-matter challenge: walking barefoot across a bed of glowing hot embers.
It’s completely safe when done under expert guidance and is a powerful way to conquer fear while supporting a great cause.

Our event will be led by UK Firewalk, experienced professionals who have guided thousands of participants safely through this incredible experience.

What to wear to a firewalk

Casual, comfortable clothes – avoid long, trailing garments. Clothes may become ash stained. Footwear should be easy to remove – flip-flops work well. Nail polish and toe rings are fine.
