Meet the YPHA Ambassadors

  • Boyd Douglas-Davies

    Industry Consultant and HTA President (2019 - 2022)

    I’m delighted to see this new group formed as we have such a fantastic industry with a long and strong future ahead of it. To see the younger generations working together to develop their own skills and attract other likeminded people to the industry is wonderful.’

  • Michael Perry

    Mr Plant Geek - TV Presenter, Blogger and Podcaster

    ‘I’m very honoured to be asked to be an ambassador. Hopefully my own journey inspires the group, and proves that horticulture is not all that it seems.’

  • Pippa Greenwood

    HTA Horticulture Manager, Broadcaster and Journalist

    t“This is a fantastic and truly useful initiative, Horticulture is a great industry and very dear to me, but up until now there was no cohesive body representing the (far too small) contingent of younger people involved. It is they who hold the key to horticulture’s future and I am thrilled that The YPHA has been launched and look forward to working with them at every opportunity.”

  • Jane Lawler

    Business Consultant

    “Horticulture has given me the most rewarding career wrapped up in the most engaging hobby. That’s why I am so committed to the aims and objectives of YPHA. I fell into horticulture as a career entirely by accident but now with YPHA we have a great opportunity to make sure others find their way – by design rather than chance - into our sector.”
