Greg Popek

Kilimanjaro 2025

I'm fundraising for the future of hospitality.

I'm raising money for The Burnt Chef Project, an organisation set up to tackle mental health stigma in the hospitality industry.

 

Did you know?

4 out of 5 hospitality professionals report to having experienced mental health issues. It's time to change this!

 

It's something very close to my heart and I would love your support!

 

Some reasons why they need your help today:

  • It costs The Burnt Chef Project £80 (UK)  per person for therapy through their global EAP scheme.
  • They have trained over 1600 students in the last 2 years in mental health and stress reduction at a cost of £400 per talk
  • £158 per volunteer they train in peer support to better aid those suffering with mental health issues

 

Together you can help them do so much more!

Climbing Pen y Fan!

So, I decided to climb Kilimanjaro? Awesome! But before I start packing my bags (and buying all that fancy gear), let’s talk training. Today, I’m climbing Pen y Fan, the highest peak in South Wales, and it’s my first real step towards conquering Kilimanjaro.
