Story

ABOUT THE EVENT

This April is our 7th birthday and we are hosting a fundraiser to raise awareness and funds to support adult cancer patients in hospital by hosting a Firewalk.

Participants will undergo training of 1 hour. When the fire has burnt to red hot embers, it is raked and prepared for the walk. Participants go to the fire, remove their footwear and one by one are invited to walk over the hot coals

This is taking place at The Elgar Centre, on the Playing Fields, 1 High Street, Upton, Northampton NN5 4EN

The money you raise will support us in providing our free gift packs and support to adult cancer patients in hospitals across the Midlands.

Thank you for supporting us to make this possible!

ABOUT THE LEWIS FOUNDATION

At The Lewis Foundation we source, package and hand deliver gift packs for free to adult cancer patients across the Midlands weekly. These are items that patients may find difficult to buy themselves or simply cannot afford and that brings happiness and comfort at a difficult time. For many people in hospital our volunteers are their only regular visitors. The Lewis Foundation gives out on average of 1000 gift packs per month to 17 hospitals across the Midland
