I chose to take part in Walk the Talk to raise funds for The King’s Trust and combine my love of walking with a meaningful cause. Sharing the experience with fellow CEOs and leaders made the day even more inspiring—the conversations were rich and insightful. Walking from Hampton Court Palace to Buckingham Palace reminded me just how beautiful London is. I’ve long supported The King’s Trust and deeply value its work with young people—helping them step out of their comfort zones and thrive in their chosen careers.

Participating in Walk the Talk last year was an inspiring and meaningful experience, chosen for its alignment with my values and the impact of The King’s Trust.

The sense of camaraderie among participants made the day truly special - we weren’t just walking, we were sharing a journey, supporting each other step by step. Along the way, I had the opportunity to connect with inspiring leaders from retail and consumer-focused businesses. These like-minded conversations, blending both business and personal reflections, gave the day added purpose - with the finishing line always in sight.

My connection to The King’s Trust is deeply personal; I’ve seen first-hand the incredible difference they make in communities. Walking for such a cherished cause left a lasting impression on me, and I’m proud to take part again this year.
