But those signing up to walk across the hot coals needn’t worry, there will be lots of safety instructions and motivational input before they are challenged to tackle the course.
Cristina Pouso, Maggie’s Forth Valley fundraising manager, said: “This will be our third 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 and will have hot soup for drinks for family and friends who can come down to watch.”

Registration is £25 and Maggie’s are hoping that each person raises at least £100.
Last year’s event saw £8000 raised for the centre allowing it to continue to offer support and information to those with cancer, as well as their family and friends.
