Charity challenge: walk over hot coals to help someone who's homeless
Thrill seekers: would you walk over hot coals to help someone who's homeless in Kent?
Porchlight – the county's biggest homelessness charity - is challenging everyone who cares about our work- to take part in a sponsored fire walk.
It's a chance to get your adrenalin fix while raising money to provide a fresh start to people who've spent winter on the streets.
The event is open to anyone aged 18+. There's a registration fee of £30 (all participants will get a Porchlight T shirt) with a suggested £100 fundraising target. The evening will be run by FireWalk UK https://firewalk.co.uk/ who will provide guidance and motivation training about completing the challenge. Teams of five are welcome with a reduced registration fee.
