It’s back- for the third year in a row we are delighted to bring our Firewalk back to Loughborough- this time at a brand new venue! Can you handle the heat? If so join us for a night of fire and fun and help raise money and awareness for Rainbows!

Our Loughborough Firewalk will give you an unbelievable experience, which will get your heart racing and your adrenaline pumping. Firewalking is the art of walking through burning coals without getting burned, transforming your fear and inspiring you to do things you didn’t think were possible!

This really is a fantastic opportunity to test your mind over matter, while putting your best foot forward for Rainbows.

Additionally, with a bar and food available on site its the perfect opportunity to to fuel up after the event, and encourage colleagues, friends and family to cheer you on, and take some photos too!

  • Is firewalking dangerous?

    UK Firewalk have never had anyone who has required medical attention after a public, corporate or charity fire walk. Their main priority is the safety of the walkers and they ensure this with a comprehensive risk assessment prior to the event. There is always a chance of a blister but if there were no risks, where would be the accomplishment of walking on fire be?

  • Will it hurt?

    The sensation is described by some as walking on eggshells, and others as walking on hot sand. Each walker has his or her own experience. UK Firewalk have not known walkers to experience pain and when the opportunity arises many will walk across the coals more than once.

  • What should I wear?

    There is no special clothing required. Casual comfortable clothes are best. Please remember fires can be quite dirty and clothes may become ash stained. Footwear needs to be easy to remove, and will need to be replaced before going back indoors so a hand towel might be a good idea. Flip flops are a good idea, especially if the ground is cold. Nail varnish and toe rings are fine.
