The Big Table Group

Serving smiles, creating dreams

We are proud to be partnering with The Big Table Group, one of the UK’s leading restaurant operators. With iconic brands including Las Iguanas, Bella Italia, Frankie & Benny’s and Chiquito, they bring people together in over 220 restaurants across the country. Their teams have embraced our mission wholeheartedly, raising over £160,000 to date, and they’re still going!

From epic mountain climbs and fitness challenges, to open mic nights and creative in-restaurant fundraising, their passion and dedication shine through. The Big Table Group teams have also rolled up their sleeves as volunteers, supporting us at events like Chilfest where they helped raise £5,000. Beyond fundraising, they’ve provided generous in-kind support, gifting families week-long stays at Centre Parcs and meal vouchers so they can enjoy precious time together at their restaurants.

We’re so proud to be continuing our partnership into a second year, creating even more magical moments and dreams come true. ✨
