After reading business in Cambridge, I worked with one of the top 100 PR consultancies in the UK before taking on various management roles within a wide variety of social enterprises, community organisations and more ‘traditional’ enterprise support bodies.
These experiences enabled me to ‘turn around’ an ailing specialist social enterprise support agency into a nationally recognised body and gained me recognition as an authority on social enterprises from local, regional and national organisations including the DTI and Bank of England.
I have used this position, along with my knowledge of the changing environment and policy context in which social enterprises operate, to deliver support to local groups and national projects to high acclaim. This appreciation has been not only from the direct individuals and communities my work has impacted upon, but others, including support agencies and international governments. It has also led to my being invited to be an occasional writer for national and regional publications.

welcome to the 'back up' website of Adrian Ashton
Welcome – here you'll find details of the services and support I offer; portfolios of work I've delivered in partnership with, and on behalf of, other organisations; and copies of articles that I've had published on various issues in relation to the 'third sector'.
You can navigate this site through using either the links to different pages below to go to specific sections, or the search box on the right hand side of this screen
and you can also download my info sheet as a pdf file by following this link
You'll see that as well as being an authority on all forms of social enterprise, co-operatives, charities and other organisations, I also have a keen interest in supporting those groups of people who are all too often overlooked or dismissed either in the workplace or society at large. This combination, along with my continual and ongoing personal development in remaining 'up to date' with current policies and legislation means that I've won praise and accolade from many I've worked with, as well as other support agencies and national bodies.
I trust that you'll find it of interest and relevance – if you'd like to clarify anything referred to on this site, or would like to have an initial discussion about any ideas you may have, I'd be more than happy to have a chat by email or phone.
