Daring Soles to Firewalk for Leuchie House http://www.ecfm.co.uk/2013/03/daring-soles-to-firewalk-for-leuchie-house/ http://www.ecfm.co.uk/2013/03/daring-soles-to-firewalk-for-leuchie-house/#comments Mon, 25 Mar 2013 17:59:02 +0000 Charlie http://www.ecfm.co.uk/?p=4429 [Continue Reading]]]> Leuchie HouseLeuchie House is calling on daring soles from East Lothian to walk over hot coals for a good cause by signing up for Leuchie House’s firewalk on Friday, 12 April to raise vital funds and conquer their fears in the process.

Leuchie House, an independent charity in East Lothian dedicated to offering respite breaks for people and their families living with long-term degenerative conditions such as Multiple Sclerosis, Huntington’s, Motor Neurone Disease, Parkinson’s, stroke and spinal injuries, relies on the goodwill of supporters and fundraisers to continue to offer quality breaks with 24-hour expert nursing care.

The fundraisers will walk 20ft across burning embers at around 1200 degrees Farenheit and the event is being run by firewalking experts BLAZE, who will host a two-hour training session to prepare fundraisers for the challenge.

One of the plucky soles who has already signed up to the challenge is Jim Liddle, a 34-year-old care assistant at Leuchie House. Jim said: “I signed up because I’ve worked at Leuchie for over seven years and it’s such a unique place, I just felt this was something I could do to raise some money and help keep it going.

Some of my friends have done firewalks before and really enjoyed the experience so I thought this would be a good way for me to give something back as well as doing something a bit different!”

There is a £20 registration fee to register for the challenge and sponsorship forms will be sent out to help raise the minimum sponsorship of £160 and a chance to play a part in helping provide much-needed respite breaks.

To register for the firewalk event, please contact Rhona Knox, Fundraising Officer at Leuchie House on 01620 897927, email: [email protected]. For further information on BLAZE, www.blazefirewalking.com.

New Community Slot on Saturday Afternoon Live http://www.ecfm.co.uk/2013/03/new-community-slot/ http://www.ecfm.co.uk/2013/03/new-community-slot/#comments Wed, 13 Mar 2013 09:42:13 +0000 Charlie http://www.ecfm.co.uk/?p=4356 [Continue Reading]]]> Do you have a good cause to champion, a charity, organisation or event to promote or perhaps campaign or local issue you would like to talk about on air, on your original local community radio station? Are you unavailable during the week? Does Saturday suit you better?

Well there’s no need to panic any longer as Daniel Piggins is actively searching for great guests from the local community who could do with a helping hand in the form of a bit of time on air either by phone or in the studio and welcomes community groups, clubs, teams, causes and organisations as well as registered charities, event organisers, tourist attractions, concerts and politicians.

Bands and musicians are also welcome, but these may be better catered for by the team on ‘The Hitbox‘ immediately afterwards at 4pm as this new feature is primarily for anyone and everyone who wants there message heard, but can’t come in or do a telephone interview during the week.

If this sounds like you or someone you know then email [email protected] or call 01620826444 and say you’d like to be on Afternoon Live!
