Are you brave enough to do a Fire or Glass Walk?

Thursday, 27 October 2022 01:00

Salisbury Hospice Charity is searching for a team of brave individuals to take on the charity’s Fire and Glass Walk on Friday 17th February 2023.

The fearless fundraisers will have to be brave enough to take on one, or both of these daring challenges...

Fire Walk: walk 15ft over hot coals at 550 degrees Celsius!Glass Walk: walk barefoot across hundreds of razor-sharp broken glass bottles.

This challenge will leave you feeling empowered. If you can walk across red hot coals or razor-sharp glass, you can do anything!

Those taking on the challenge will be supported by UK Firewalk, one of the UK’s leading Fire and Glass Walk companies.

Walkers will receive intense training from Scott Bell to be able to perform these unique mind-over-matter experiences. Scott is the twice Guinness World Record holder for the ‘Greatest Fire Walking Distance’ by walking 328 feet on burning coals.

Abi Blake, Event Fundraiser said, “After the huge success of our first Fire Walk in 2021, we are so excited to bring this challenge back to the Guildhall Square in Salisbury with the addition of a glass walk.

"This is truly the ultimate mind-over-matter challenge!

"Whether fire walking or walking across shards of broken glass is already on your bucket list or something you’ve never considered doing, it is an exhilarating way to challenge yourself to do something different whilst raising much-needed funds for Salisbury Hospice."

Registration is £30 per adult for either the Fire or Glass Walk or £50 for both.

Age restrictions are 12+. Salisbury Hospice Charity ask that each brave participant raise a minimum of £100 in sponsorship for one challenge or £150 for both challenges.

Numbers are limited so register soon to avoid disappointment. For more information and to register click here.

The Fire and Glass Walk is kindly sponsored by Nucleus.
