Would you walk barefoot over hot coals to help animals in need?

Step up for an evening of courage, community, and compassion and take part in the Cats Protection Fire Walk Challenge 2026.
By choosing to fire walk for Cats Protection, you will be raising funds for essential care for cats and kittens on the Isle of Wight. Your bravery in taking on this challenge will raise funds to help us care for cats, vaccinate and neuter and find them loving homes. The event starts with training from 5pm and will finish at 8pm
No experience needed: We’ll give you all the training you need on the day. You bring the courage and compassion – we’ll handle the rest. This event is being held in collaboration with RSCPA

What should I wear?

There is no special clothing required. Casual comfortable clothes are best. Please remember fires can be quite dirty and clothes may become ash stained. Footwear needs to be easy to remove, and will need to be replaced before going back indoors so a hand towel might be a good idea. Flip flops are a good idea, especially if the ground is cold. Nail varnish and toe rings are fine.

Are there any medical restrictions?

We have many people walk who are pregnant, have diabetes, stroke survivors, and are blind amongst many other conditions. None have been an issue, however we always recommend if in doubt seek advice from your doctor.

Is it safe?

There is an inherent risk in any activity involving fire. It is important that participants pay attention to all the training and heed the advice and instruction of the trainer, firewatchers and spotters. Whilst absolute safety is not guaranteed proper procedure reduces risk to the achievable minimum.

Will I be hypnotised?

No. There is no hypnotism involved. You will be fully awake at all times – indeed you will be more alert than usual. You may also withdraw at any time if you wish.

What about age restrictions?

Participants need to be aged 18 or over.
