Story

It was hot  so much hotter than I had imagined. And I did it twice. My feet sting but it was truly mind-blowing. If you can please donate! 

Thank you you lovely peeps!

For many years I have graciously declined the opportunity to jump out of a perfectly good plane, slide down a really tall building or run a hideous long way, but now I am going to put my good foot forward and walk over hot coals burning at a mere 500 degrees.  I am told it could be life-affirming and I am going to be the first one over!  Little do they know how clumsy I am!  

The world seems really challenging right now, and so much of it is beyond our control.  By my choosing to do this, I am taking a little bit of control back, making a difference to the lives of the homeless and starting 2022 on the right foot!  

I can't lie - I am very nervous but the more I raise the more I won't want to let you all down. So, please support me if you can - donate and come and cheer (or catch me if I fall).  Love you all.  And THANK YOU.  Rebecca

Why Alabaré?

976 homeless people died across the four nations last year. By taking part in The Chippenham Firewalk and fundraising for Alabare and Homes for Veterans you will be making a difference in the lives of others living in North Wiltshire. Alabaré has recently opened a new home in Chippenham for people in 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 Alabare services in this area.
