Can You Take The Heat For Scarborough's Saint Catherine’s?

The hospice are bringing back their fire walk challenge in October.

A Saint Catherine's spokesperson said:

'Feel the sense of achievement as you step barefoot across a bed of fire which can reach temperatures of 1,236 degrees Fahrenheit. Training will be given beforehand to ensure a safe experience. Challenge your fears and raise vital funds for patient care.' 

The event will take place at Saint Catherine’s Hospice on the evening of Saturday 12th October. There are a limited amount of places available so people are encouraged to sign up as soon as possible.

Anna Jackson, head of income generation, said:

“We are excited to bring this event back this year and give the opportunity for supporters to challenge themselves and raise much-needed funds for patient care at the same time. Join us for a fun evening of fire, food and fundraising up at the hospice!”

The registration cost is £25, and participants are encouraged to raise a minimum of £120 in sponsorship.

The evening will begin at 5pm with entertainment and food at flavours bistro, while the brave fundraisers register and then train to walk across the fire. The event will finish at 9pm, after celebrating.

Participants can bring spectators with them.

The event is sponsored by Heat Source and the fire walk will be conducted by Blaze fire waking experts.
