Ignite Events
Due to generous donations, endless support and pure kindness within our community, Ignite has been able to hold and continue to raise money for some amazing events in honour and celebration of Hallie.
We have achieved so much in such a short time, and this is all down to the amazing support from family, friends and our local community.
Thank you x
Hallie's 19th Birthday Walk
On 11th November 2023, over 300 people came together to walk 40 minutes through Weldon Village in honour of Hallie's first heavenly birthday. The support for the Colquhoun family within the community absolutely shone through on this day, it was beautiful to see and will always be a core memory for the foundation.
Ignite Music Fundraiser
On 26th January 2024, Ignite held a music fundraiser event for a chance to not only raise money for the foundation but to give back to the community that has supported us endlessly by holding a fun night full of partying, raffle prizes worth over £3k, live entertainment, and a special live performance from Addict Dance Academy! Watching the dancers that Hallie trained with perform for us, was a truly special and emotional moment. We were also amazed and overwhelmed that Gareth Chown (Principal of Addict), donated £1k to Ignite Impact Foundation. This was truly a precious and unforgettable night for the Colquhoun's, the Ignite team and everyone who attended. Due to the outstanding support Ignite received, we were able to raise an amazing £8000 on this night alone. We truly cannot thank everyone enough.

MOVE IT Show 2024
From 15-17th March 2024, we attended MOVE IT as an exhibitor! This was a huge opportunity for Ignite to tell Hallie's story, and network with so many incredible people in the dance industry. This was an unforgettable experience and everyone was so supportive!
Our Podcast page @ConfessionsOfADancer came along with us and conducted many mini interviews across the weekend, which were posted to the Tiktok page and accumulated a whopping 58k views! Our Podcast host Lara Dorothy, did an amazing job interviewing dancers & businesses and even managed to get some contacts for filming future episodes. The support and interest was truly motivating and we cannot wait to return next year :)
Clare & Laura's Skydive
On 1st June 2024, two core members of the Ignite team Laura Morrison and Clare Delargy, set out to do a fundraiser skydive from 13,000ft in honour of Hallie. They both have always gone above and beyond for Ignite, but to see them completely out of their comfort zone and achieve this not only for Ignite, but for Hallie was truly special. Clare and Laura raised over £9k for Ignite Impact Foundation – absolutely incredible! We are still at a loss for words and can't thank everyone who sponsored and donated enough. We will always be grateful for these two ladies with the biggest hearts!

MEGA Clubbercise (unoffical) World Record! Smashed it!
Friday 22nd March 2024, saw 301 clubbers smash the Guinness World Record!! This was organised by Emma's cousin, Melissa Wilkins. A fundraising event in aid of Ignite. The planning and work put in to achieving this was unreal and we cannot thank Melissa enough for all of her hard work, and putting together an unforgettable night. The atmosphere was insane, and we were blown away with the support from far and wide. We managed to raise an incredible 4k on the night!
