Parker House raise over £2000 with charity fire walk

10 November 2017

Parker House have thus far raised £2075 for Water4 through their charity fire walk just before half term.

Almost 100 adventurous pupils, as well as some parents and staff, braved the burning coals to raise money for charity. All of the pupils found the experience a powerful and invigorating experience, and thankfully everyone came away from the daunting experience without any injuries, with many going back for a second or third walk!

Water4 is a charity dedicated to addressing the water crisis in the 3rd world by empowering local communities to transform themselves and solve issues on their own. They do this by training and supporting local entrepreneurs to start their own businesses, drill their own water wells, and become local engines of sustainable change. They also train local residents in sanitation and hygiene practices so they can prevent the spread of disease and sustain the benefits of clean water forever.
