Nationwide hospitality support for Walk for Wellbeing

29 October 2024

More than 1,000 people from across the hospitality industry, including the Institute’s Youth Council, united this October to Walk for Wellbeing in support of UK charity Hospitality Action raising an incredible £135,000.

Proudly supported by the Institute and marking its fifth and biggest year to date, Walk for Wellbeing emphasised the importance of prioritising mental health and wellbeing. With the leading cause of anxiety in the UK being financial worry and debt, every penny raised for Hospitality Action will directly benefit hospitality employees and their families facing challenging times.

Individuals and teams from across the industry joined 20km walks on Sunday 13 October in nine UK cities including London, Oxford, Bath/Bristol, Cardiff, Birmingham, Liverpool, Manchester and Glasgow.

In addition, hundreds of people chose to ‘Walk It Your Way’ between World Mental Health Day on 10 October and 27 October, raising even more awareness and vital funds for this worthy cause. From walking 10km in a nature reserve or along a local beach with friends and family, to holding walking meetings and team walkabouts, participants came up with a variety of ways to get involved and play their part in supporting the vital work of Hospitality Action.

Well done to all those involved.
