The event will be taking place at the centre in Larbert on Thursday, October 26.

Cristina Pouso, centre fundraising manager for Maggie’s Forth Valley, said: “This will be our fourth Firewalk at Maggie’s as it’s proved hugely popular with our supporters. It’s such a unique event and we’re so lucky to be able to host it at our centre. We’re having a spooktacular themed night for Hallowe'en and will have pizza and hot drinks for firewalkers and spectators.”
