Holly Clement 3rd Oct, 2024

A KIDDERMINSTER hospice has announced the return of the Firewalk fundraiser this October.

Attendees are invited to walk barefoot across hot embers to raise cash for KEMP Hospice.

Set to take place on October 17 at the King and Castle Pub car park at the Severn Valley Railway in Kidderminster.

Emily Henderson, corporate and 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 sponsored by IT solutions and EBC Group.




Aidan Halling, head of marketing at EBC Group added: “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.”

Everyone taking part will be guided by professional firewalk instructors.
