Face the Flames. Change a Life.
Join us for an unforgettable evening of courage and compassion as you take on the ultimate challenge, walking barefoot across fire, all to support the dogs in our care at Birmingham Dogs Home.

What to Expect

Your firewalking journey begins with check-in and a warm welcome, followed by a powerful mindset seminar led by a certified firewalking instructor. Through engaging exercises like arrow breaking, you’ll learn to unlock your inner strength, overcome self-limiting beliefs, and harness your mental focus.

As the fire is lit, you’ll explore:

  • The Psychology of Experience
  • Removing and Replacing Limiting Beliefs
  • The Physiology of Confidence
  • Using Your Mind for Your Own Good
  • 🎯Goal Setting and Achievement

Whether you choose to walk the coals or support from the sidelines, this inspiring event will leave a lasting impact.

After the walk, we’ll celebrate together — with one final surprise challenge to close the night!

Fundraising Commitment

Each firewalker is asked to raise a minimum of £150:

  • £112.50 (75%) due by 3rd October 2026
  • Full amount due by 31 October 2026

Our fundraising team is here to help you reach your goal with ideas, tips, and support every step of the way.

Extra Perks

  • Every participant receives a goody bag
  • Food and drinks available to purchase
  • Spectators welcome to cheer you on!

Why Your Support Matters

Birmingham Dogs Home receives no government funding and relies entirely on the kindness of our community. Your fundraising helps provide essential care for dogs in need:

  • Vet checks and vaccinations
  • Nutritious food and warm bedding
  • Training and behavioural assessments
  • A second chance at life

What your fundraising can do:

  • £150: Covers a dog’s first week of care
  • £250: Funds specialist behavioural therapy
  • £500: Vaccinates 25 dogs against serious diseases

Be Bold. Be Brave. Be Their Hero.

Sign up now and walk through fire to give our dogs hope, healing, and a brighter future.
Together, we can make sparks fly for a truly life-changing cause.
