Can you conquer the coals and help raise funds for NCW?
On March 14th, we invite you to face your fears and take on our exhilarating fire walk.
A fire walk is one of the most empowering challenges you’ll ever experience. As the name suggests, it involves walking barefoot across a bed of red-hot embers heated to around 800 degrees. No gimmicks, no special effects—just you and the fire.
Fear plays a central role in this journey. As you approach the embers, your instincts will urge you to turn back. But once you push through that fear, nothing seems impossible. After all, if you can walk safely across burning coals, what else could you achieve?
Join us at Norton Parish Hall (Wadborough Rd, Norton, Littleworth, Worcester WR5 2QB) on Friday, March 14th, and take part in this inspiring event. Registration begins at 6.30pm. Friends and family are welcome to come along and cheer you on. Food and refreshments will be available to purchase throughout the evening.
The registration fee is £30 per person, which covers the fire walk experience and a one-hour preparation session. We ask that participants raise at least £70 to support our work with our students who are blind or vision impaired.
Your support truly makes a difference. Every step you take helps us continue our vital work, empowering students and creating a positive impact at NCW.

Join Acorns for the return of our most foam-tastic event, Acorns Bubble Rush!
Bubble Rush is a fun run with a difference – it’s not a race! Bubble Rush events are not timed, so you’re not racing against anyone. No matter how you choose to take on the bubbles, the most important thing is that you finish with a smile on your face!
At Bubble Rush you start in a sea of foam and around the course you’ll encounter four bubble stations filled with masses of colourful bubbles! Plus, it’s a 2-lap course, so you go through each bubble station twice for double the incredi-bubble fun!
Everyone’s welcome at Bubble Rush – there’s no minimum or maximum age limit! Tots and teens, grown-ups and grandparents can all enjoy the pushchair and wheelchair-friendly course together.
Wave times
There are two wave times for you to choose from. We ask you to arrive one hour prior to your wave time to get checked in and warmed up before your wave starts.
