Firewalk To Help End Homelessness
Some brave volunteers from across our practices are going to putting their best feet forward and taking part in a charity Firewalk!
To help our current charity of the year, Alabaré, members of our team will be walking barefoot over red-hot wood embers measuring around 800 degrees to help end homelessness.
Tragically 688 homeless people died across England and Wales last year. By taking part and fundraising for Alabaré and Homes for Veterans, we’ll be making a difference in the lives of others living specifically in North Wiltshire. Alabaré has recently opened a new home in Chippenham for people in a mental health crisis as an alternative to hospital admission, while Unity House in Chippenham provides up to 30-bed spaces for those seeking emergency accommodation or supported accommodation. All funds from this event will go to support Alabaré services in this area.
Training will be provided by Time4Change, who are experts in fire walking and have helped charities to raise thousands of pounds over the years.
Friends and family can cheer on the brave volunteers at the event being held at HardenHuish School in Chippenham on Saturday, September 17 from 6.30pm to 9.30pm.
