Meet JB – Our 4th Place Pumpkin Prize Winner!

 

JB is an incredible example of what courage and determination can achieve. Attending Greenfingers three days a week, she travels independently from Fleet by train and bus – a journey that represents so much more than just getting from A to B.
 
Two years ago, JB achieved her dream of independent living in a supervised home. Since then, we’ve watched her confidence and skills blossom. She now makes her own choices about her work, tends to her own allotment where she grows beautiful vegetables, and even helps support other Greenfingers participants.
 
What seemed impossible three years ago is now her everyday reality – and it’s down to JB’s incredible inner strength, her supportive family, and the Greenfingers ethos of respect, responsibility, and believing in every person’s potential.
 
JB, we’re so proud of you and your amazing pumpkin! You inspire us every single day.
