Who can take part?
The Firewalk is open to anyone aged 18 or over. Whether you're part of a local business wanting to take on a staff challenge, students determined to face your fears, or friends and family just wanting to give it a go, everyone is welcome at SWEDA'S Firewalk.
What do I need to do to take part?
We ask that each Firewalker aims to reach a fundraising goal of at least £150...hopefully even more! Your fundraising goal of £150 enables us to cover the cost of both a 1-to-1 counselling session AND a support group session for up to 6 people. As we have a limited number of spaces on the Firewalk, your commitment to raising funds will make all the difference to SWEDA, as the ticket price helps cover the event itself.
By taking part in the Firewalk and hitting your sponsorship goal, you will ensure that we can continue to offer care, compassion, and critical support when and where people need it most.
What happens on the night itself?
Fire will be lit at around 6pm, as participants arrive. They will then undergo a 90min briefing from the expert Firewalk UK team at 6.30pm, followed by the Firewalk at 8pm, as the sun sets over Wells Cathedral.
Delicious refreshments, a raffle, live entertainment from a samba band and a Rock Choir, plus a chance to find out more about SWEDA's vital work in the community.
