A combination of pine, ash and oak is burnt and then broken down into a smooth red hot path of embers. The lane itself is between <strong style="behavior: none; mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">15-20ft</strong> long and<strong style="behavior: none; mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"> 2-3ft</strong> wide. During the course of the burn down the temperature of the fire reaches over <strong style="behavior: none; mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">1236°</strong> Fahrenheit and when it comes time to walk on the coals the fire lane will be burning at a core temperature of over <strong style="behavior: none; mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">800°</strong> degrees Fahrenheit.</span><strong style="behavior: none; mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"></strong></p>

We now help more than 215,000 cats and kittens every year, through our network of over 250 volunteer-run branches and 29 adoption centres.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #4b4b4b; font-family: Arial; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;">Our work does not stop there, however: we also provide an array of cat care information via our publications, website and Helpline; promote the benefits of neutering to prevent unwanted litters from being born and becoming the abandoned cats of tomorrow and seek to educate people of all ages about cats and their care</span></p>
