A massive well done to our big Greek family! 👏 Yesterday we walked a half-marathon around London, in support of Pancreatic Cancer UK and CRIS Cancer Foundation- to raise funds and awareness for a cause close to our hearts.

This is our second and this year we had even more friends, family and colleagues walking to remember the life and legacy of Christos Karatzenis, our beloved Operations Director who sadly lost a short battle with Pancreatic Cancer in February 2020.

Since then, we have been continually raising funds for Pancreatic Cancer UK - for example, by donating 25p for every Pork Skewer meze (Christos’ favourite) ordered in our restaurants, with optional £1 donations during Pancreatic Cancer Awareness month and with

Thank you to everyone who walked and to those who donated, showed support and helped us in raising awareness - plus a special thank you to Vasilis Karatzenis and VDK Capital 💙
