A HAMPSHIRE gardening firm has been rewarded for its close links with a disability charity.
The Range in Winchester Road, Southampton, was presented with a Partner of the Month award from Enham.
The charity works to provide disabled people with the opportunity to find employment and their own independence.
The Range supported Enham learner Graham Smith, who was sent to the gardening shop on work experience at the start of the year.
Graham had not been in regular employment for three years before starting at the shop and has since bagged himself a permanent job.
Presenting the award Enham Partner Liaison Michael Steel said: “Each month Enham recognises the support and commitment of one of the many partners we work with across the south of England. The team at the Range were selected in recognition of their work in supporting Graham.”
