Take on our Firewalk challenge and help change lives
On 22 January 2027, FearFree is hosting a Firewalk in Exeter, an unforgettable challenge where participants will walk across hot coals to stand alongside survivors of domestic abuse, stalking and sexual violence.
Every day, people in our communities are living with fear; at home, online, or in relationships where they should feel safe. FearFree supports those affected to find safety, rebuild their lives, and move forward with confidence.
The courage it takes to seek help or leave an abusive situation is extraordinary. By supporting this challenge, you’re helping make that journey possible for others.
