Ashley joined Neighbourhood Watch Network in 2024 as the Young People's Programme Manager, to shape and strengthen the charity's engagement with youth social action. Having worked in programme-project management, strategic communications and youth advocacy across the VCSE sector since 2019, she hopes to make a real impact on the mission to 'amplify youth voices in their communities'. Ashley firmly believes that young people should have a say on the crime, community, and safety issues that affect them.
