The Pepper Foundation on Channel 4’s The Last Leg

On Friday 13 December (unlucky for some, but not for Pepper!), Robert Breakwell, the Founder and Chair of The Pepper Foundation, was honoured to be the first-ever winner of the ‘Golden Hans Award’ on the Channel 4 comedy talk show The Last Leg. 

Comedy legend Adam Hills (well-known for his charity work) presented Robert Breakwell with the award, recognising 35 years of fundraising for children’s hospice care.

This award represents an amazing end to the year that was the 35th anniversary of the Pepper Foundation. Robert founded The Pepper Foundation charity in 1989 to help fund vital hospice at home care for children with life-limiting conditions. Starting with the incredible annual rock show ‘The Pepper Show’ (October 2025 will be its 36th show week) and year-round fundraising, The Pepper Foundation has raised over £8 million to support children’s hospice at home care.
