    You have to pay £30.00 registration fee and raise £150.00, if you raise the £150.00 you get the £30.00 back, although I'll just donate that to Balmore too.

    Thumbs up

    Someone I know did the firewalk last year and said that it was the experience of a lifetime. So come on, walk the walk for Balmore. You may never get the chance again

    Some potential walkers feel they may be unable to raise the £150, so therefore if anyone is keen to do the walk - after you pay the reservation fee of £30, raise as much sponsorship as you can (without robbing a bank) - the organisers don't want anyone to miss out on the experience of a lifetime.

    If you don't raise the £150 do you just make it up youself?

    No - We are happy to accept whatever sponsorship you can raise. Obviously the more the better but we want to get as many people walking as we can - should be more fun that way.

    Default Firewalk

    This should be a great event, although the SSPCA still need more daring people who will do the FIREWALK. First time in Caithness, so come on and take up this challenge.
