KEMP Hospice Firewalk returns to help raise funds for
We’re very excited that our ever-popular Firewalk fundraiser returns this October. The exhilarating event invites everyone to walk barefoot across red-hot embers, all in the name of raising vital funds to support KEMP Hospice.
Taking place on Thursday 17th October 2024, the setting for the event is once again at the King and Castle Pub car park at the Severn Valley Railway in Kidderminster. Anyone who is daring enough to take on the challenge can register on our website. Emily Henderson, Corporate & Events Fundraiser at KEMP Hospice said “The Firewalk is more than just a test of bravery; it is an opportunity for individuals and teams to challenge themselves whilst supporting KEMP Hospice. It’s one of a series of challenges we host each year, it’s a chance for people to push their limits and achieve something incredible, all while making a real difference to those facing life-limiting illnesses in the Wyre Forest.”
The Firewalk is kindly sponsored by IT solutions and managed services provider, EBC Group. Aidan Halling, Head of Marketing at EBC Group said “We’re incredibly excited to be sponsoring this year’s KEMP Hospice Firewalk. At EBC Group, we’re passionate about supporting local communities and causes, and KEMP’s work is truly inspiring. We’ve been fortunate enough to partner with organisations like Kidderminster Harriers, Coventry Rugby, and Worcester Cricket Club, but KEMP holds a special place for us, given the invaluable care they provide to families facing difficult times. We’re proud to stand alongside KEMP in making a real difference and encourage everyone to get involved and take on this thrilling challenge for such a worthy cause.”
Emily continued “We’re so grateful to EBC Group for their support, helping us make this event possible. I encourage everyone who’s up for a challenge to sign up, fundraise, and join us for what will be an unforgettable night!”
