POPS Collective CIC is proudly formed in loving memory of Ron "Pops" Craven.
Pops was a multi-skilled tradesman and a passionate foodie who loved bringing people together. It was his deep understanding of the pressures faced by people working in construction and hospitality—the long hours and the intense physical and mental demands—that inspired this initiative.
Founded by people with lived experience, POPS Collective deeply understands the challenges you face. While we are committed to supporting hardworking people in the industries Pops knew so well, our support is not exclusive to construction and hospitality. We are here for anyone who needs a helping hand, ensuring no one feels alone, stigmatised, or unsupported.
Through POPS Collective, Pops' legacy lives on—helping people from all walks of life find strength, hope, and connection.
