Harriet C – Winner of the South East Region BBC Young Journalist Competition on Fresh Start for Hens!

Harriet C in Year 7 entered the BBC Young Journalist Competition earlier this year and has just found out she is the winner for the South East region.

She wrote a report on her volunteer work with Fresh Start for Hens.   An organisation that saves ex-commercial hens from slaughter and finds them happy retirement homes.

She is our chief catcher at the Aylesford collection point and can’t resist bringing any poorly hens home to nurse back to health.

If anyone is interested in giving some hens a new home look at the Fresh Start for Hens website or see Harriet.

The BBC will be filming with Harriet over the summer.   We are so proud of her writing skills and her dedication to the charity.

Congratulations Harriet!
