We did it!

This October, the people of hospitality came together to Walk for Calm, to support and raise funds for Hospitality Action and CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably).

Powered by mum, Walk for Calm was brought to you in partnership with Caterer.com, UKHospitality, The Caterer, Umbrella Training, Healthy Hospo, Tonic Talent and Sixty Eight People.

A massive thank you to everyone who took part, got involved, supported on social media and donated. The response has been absolutely incredible!

Our fundraising continues until Saturday 14th November, meaning there is still time to donate if you are in a position to.

CALM and Hospitality Action work tirelessly to alleviate the challenges and barriers to people’s wellbeing.

Here’s what we can help them achieve:

For Hospitality Action…

£25 pays for an hour of telephone support. Providing a listening ear for those struggling with the impact of COVID-19.

£100 pays for new interview clothes and shoes to help hospitality people get back to work following redundancy.

£250 provides an emergency grant to cover essential costs like utilities and food following redundancy.

For CALM…

£8 pays for a lifesaving call on the CALM Helpline. So, £80 pays for 10 calls and £800 pays for …well you get the idea!

£5,500 pays for around a month of Helpline support.

“Mental health isn’t a destination but rather a journey. These past few months have been trying for us all but especially those working in hospitality. By taking part in Walk for Calm you’ll be keeping active and engaged, taking care of your own mental health as you take care of others.” Mark Lewis, CEO of Hospitality Action.
