Erskine Firewalk 2021

Join us for the hottest challenge of the year to raise money for Veterans at Erskine. When you partake in an Erskine Firewalk, you’ll be walking over coals that are up to 1200 degrees Fahreinheit! Full training will be provided.

Michael Jamieson, Erskine Community Fundraiser, has first-hand experience of the event, billed as The Hottest Challenge of the Year, after braving previous firewalks.

And having witnessed the inspiring stories of the Veterans in Erskine’s care, he is more than ready to do it all over again. He said: “The Veterans are the inspiration. They have shown indescribable levels of bravery throughout their lives defending us all.

“2020 has been a difficult year for them, so I believe the least that we can do is to show our appreciation for their incredible service through continued fundraising efforts which go a long way to supporting everyone in Erskine’s care.

“Walking across fire is definitely our most extreme challenge yet – but trust me, if I can do it, anybody can. It might seem scary, but I can honestly say it is one of the most exhilarating things you will ever experience, and all for a fantastic cause.

Participants will undergo an hour of motivational speaking prior to braving the coals, while the COVID-safe event will take place outdoors and adhere to all social-distancing regulations.
