Can you handle the heat?
Face your fears and walk on hot coals this November to raise life-saving funds for our heart unit, patients and families.
Date
Sunday 19th November 2023
Time
3:30pm – 7:30pm
Location
Morley Cricket Club, LS27 0JJ
You will undertake an intense motivational training session with the team at firewalk.co.uk, who will be running the event on the night. Then it will be time to take the walk of your life across the burning hot ashes!
You will take it in turns to walk along 12-15 feet of burning coals, with temperatures initially being in excess of 1000° Fahrenheit!
This adrenaline rush is the perfect opportunity to:
- grow your confidence
- ignite your courage and passion for CHSF
- do something completely out of your comfort zone.
This is more of a challenge of the mind than a physical one, and a fantastic way to demonstrate the power of mental resilience. It can show you that there is more to ‘reality’ than you think – that many limitations we experience in life are self-imposed.
Please note, this event is suitable for ages 18+
Registration fee: £15
Minimum fundraising pledge: £150
