Dealers continue to rally behind 2,000km charity walk across Europe

Stephen Johnson, Managing Director of Quooker UK & Ireland, has officially passed the 500,000-step milestone just six days into his 2,000km charity walk across Europe, raising an incredible £25,000 so far for children’s charities Grief Encounter and The Friendship Circle.

A powerful dealer-driven initiative

Covering over 64km a day across five countries, Stephen’s challenge is part of a powerful dealer-driven initiative launched in July to unite Quooker’s UK showroom network in a shared mission of compassion and impact.

Dealers are taking part by:

• Promoting a national charity raffle, with customers entered to win one of six complete Quooker systems
• Creating in-store fundraising teams and logging local walks
• Driving awareness through branded POS packs and digital content

“This milestone is a testament to the power of community,” says Stephen. “Every step is fuelled by the support of our dealers, customers, and colleagues and we’re just getting started.”

The walk is also a personal tribute to Stephen’s late father, Neville Johnson, a pioneer in the UK kitchen industry whose legacy continues to inspire the campaign.
