Meet the Travelling Light team

We’ve recently welcomed a new member to our small and busy team – so we thought it was a good time to say hello from all of us.

Julian Ashworth – Community Projects Officer

 

“I joined the Travelling Light Team in June 2023, to help with the public engagement around the project (and the online mobility hub element in particular) and give transport advice. You’re likely to see me at events. My career has been in sustainable transport with local authorities, including managing a successful team to help businesses, employees, jobseekers and apprentices with their commutes. I am very active in my local community, having been a founder member of Transition New Mills, and am now focussing my spare time on nature recovery.”

Trish Maunder – Community Projects Officer

“I work part time for Hope Valley Climate Action to deliver projects alongside the community. I’m also studying part-time for an MSc in Social Justice and Community Action. I’m responsible for creating the online and in person space for communities to get involved in Travelling Light, facilitating conversations within and between communities, and ensuring that everyone’s voices are heard during the process.”
