Erskine Veterans Charity Firewalk for Forres 2024

Get Ready to Feel the Heat!   Erskine Veterans Charity Firewalk for Forres 2024

Looking for a fundraising challenge that will really test your courage while supporting local Veterans?

This Remembrance Sunday, 10th November 2024, at Grant Park, Forres, Scotland’s leading Veterans Charity is calling on all thrill-seekers and fearless fundraisers to take on the Erskine Forres Firewalk!

Do you dare to cross 15ft of sizzling hot coals – barefoot! At 1200°F, this challenge is not for the faint-hearted, but with full training and a powerful motivational session beforehand, you’ll be ready to face the heat. All for an amazing cause! Funds raised will go to the new Erskine Veterans Activity Centre in Forres, which is due to open later in the year. The new Centre aims to enhance the quality of life and wellbeing of Veterans in the Morayshire by providing the opportunity to engage with people who have shared experiences and history, along with the opportunity to learn new skills, and access support services.

What to Expect:

  • Training & Motivation: One hour of training
  • The Challenge: Walk across 15ft of burning coals from 7:00 pm
  • What You’ll Get: A free Erskine T-shirt to wear with pride and all the fundraising support you’ll need

Only 50 spots available, so don't miss out on this epic challenge.

Are you brave enough? Sign up today and take a walk on the wild side – all while supporting Erskine's mission to help our local Veterans. Open to ages 12+ (under 18s need permission).

Erskine Fundraising & Development Manager, Michael Parkes said: “We are thrilled to host our first ever Erskine Forres Firewalk on Remembrance Day.  The event promises to be a very special night at such a poignant time for the charity.  There is no better time to support Erskine than on Remembrance Sunday, as we look forward to the opening of the Erskine Veterans Activity Centre in Forres.  Whether you fancy conquering the blazing hot coals or coming along to watch – all are welcome!”
