Take on the Fire Walk

Do you think you’ve got what it takes to step up to the (hot) plate and walk over coals for Diverse Abilities, Dorset’s Disability Charity?

The charity is looking for individuals and teams to take on the challenge to raise money for children and adults with physical and learning disabilities in Dorset.

The event takes place on Wednesday, October 9 at The Treehouse, Diverse Abilities new children’s services hub based near Bournemouth Airport. The event runs from 6.00pm – 9.00pm, and as well as the fire walk, participants will be able to enjoy great food, drinks and live entertainment.

An entry for the Fire Walk costs £10, and participants are encouraged to raise sponsorship money from friends, family and colleagues. Money raised will be used to fund Diverse Abilities’ much needed services such as:

·       Days out for children who attend our school holidays activities

·       Much needed equipment at Langside School

·       Activities for adults who attend The Beehive – the charity’s activity and day centre

Mariana Swain, events executive at Diverse Abilities, commented: “This is the first time we have held this event, and we are really looking forward to meeting the people who are going to take on this exciting challenge for us. It will be a great evening, with a really supportive atmosphere to encourage those who are apprehensive about the challenge. It’s a great team building exercise, or an excellent challenge to take on as an individual or part of a group.”
