Weʼve raised £380 to build a creche in a community near Polokwane in South Africa to reduce child abuse
- Funded on Friday, 1st December 2017

Story
On November 24th 2017, I will be walking over 10 - 12 feet of hot coals.
I am doing this, along with several others, in order to raise money for a large creche to be built and run in a small village near Polokwane in South Africa. The idea is to provide a safe place for children to go whilst parents work and reduce the horrendous child abuse rates - 57% are abused because they have nowhere safe to go. The buildings will take 100 children off the street and put them into safety as well as giving them a hot meal every day. By providing these basic facilities the hope is to create a 'ripple effect' of change. Please donate generously by giving below.

7 years agoHi everyone. First, thank you so much for sponsoring me. However, I need to tell you that the firewalk has been postponed as the organiser has been taken into hospital with a bad back. I have been informed that it will take place shortly after xmas and the date will be released soon. I shall keep you updated. I guess at least I won't have sore feet for Xmas which is a plus :)
