Overcoming Adversity: Jade Duquemin

JADE DUQUEMIN has been put forward for the Close Finance-sponsored Overcoming Adversity award.

Her nominator, who wished to remain anonymous, said Jade has gained more than 80,000 TikTok followers recently for her inspiring videos about domestic violence.

‘She has been through DV and is now helping others who have been through it by making these videos sharing her experiences and what people in similar positions can do to get help and feel better.

‘Those videos led to a lot of people messaging Jade who had been in similar situations.

‘She has helped so many people by talking to them and helping them to recover from their experience.

She received so many messages and took the time to reply to as many as she could.

‘She is so kind and selfless and has taken so much of her own time to help people.’
