Story

Will you help to take the heat off women and children in refuge? Take on the ultimate challenge by walking over hot coals!

Help us make a house a home

Black Country Womens Aid refuges support women and children fleeing domestic abuse and exploitation. Many of them will have had to leave their homes with nothing. When they move on from refuge into safe new homes, we give them a helping hand in turning an empty house into a home. All funds raised will buy basic but essential items we all take for granted such as curtains, bedding, kettle, toaster, cutlery, microwave, towels, fridge, crockery, pots and pans etc.

By registering for the Firewalk event and raising sponsorship, you will be helping women and children to escape living in fear, overcome trauma and set up home again.

- £100.00 raised, will pay for a home starter pack: microwave, kettle, toaster, mugs, dinner service, towels and cutlery

- £200.00 raised, could pay for a bed, a wardrobe, TV, curtains, fridge , carpet

- £400.00 raised, could pay for a sofa, table and chairs, bunk beds, floor coverings, paint and wallpaper

Lets give these families the best start and help them to create new happy memories

We ask you to raise a minimum of £100 and we give you the toolkit to make this easy!

Thank you to our sponsors The Pavers Foundation and Black Country Aggregates for supporting this event.
