Ash grew up locally and lives in Clay Cross, meaning that she will always put local people and our community first.

Full statement

Day-to-day, Ash works as Head of Service Operations at a global cyber security company. This fast-paced and complex role has given Ash the ability to rapidly problem solve and deliver meaningful solutions.

Over the years, Ash has been actively involved with a number of different charities supporting vulnerable adults. This work means that Ash understands the importance of local government in providing decent public services which we can all rely on.

Local councillor, Frank Adlington-Stringer, said, “I know that Ash will be a strong voice for Clay Cross North and put in the hard work to get things done for local people”.

Your local Green Party is pleased to announce that Ash Farrand will be standing in the Clay Cross North ward for election to North East Derbyshire District Council. This election was called following the passing of councillor Gerry Morley. Our thoughts remain with his family.
