Leeds Mind Firewalk
Step into Victoria Gardens, outside Leeds Art Gallery, and face the ultimate test of courage: walking barefoot over glowing, red-hot embers!
It’s daring. It’s thrilling. It’s the kind of experience that makes your heart race and your friends jealous. Think you’ve got what it takes to step up?
Arrive from 5:30pm to get “fired up”. You’ll be guided by one of the UK’s top firewalk companies, who’ll help ease those butterflies and get you ready for your moment in the spotlight. Then, one by one, participants will take on the firewalk, it’s all about mind over matter!
This is more than a physical challenge, it’s a mental adventure. Perfect for anyone wanting to prove resilience, bravery, and maybe show off a bit!
Details:
Open to ages 12+ (under 16s need parent/guardian permission)
Firewalk place: £20, with a sponsorship target of £150
What you’ll get for stepping into the heat:
Training from UK Firewalk experts
Certificate of completion
Leeds Mind t-shirt
Support throughout your fundraising journey
