Ashley is the associate pastor at St Paul’s Hammersmith. It was while living a colourful life as a model in the fashion industry in Paris that he had a conversion experience to the Christian faith. He went on to work in retail management and then Grandma’s children’s charity before training for ordained ministry at Ridley Hall, Cambridge. During this time he has also been involved in leadership, discipleship and pastoral care in two church plants in central London. He is passionate in working towards an authentic urban spirituality that combines the contemplative and charismatic traditions.

Ashley is married to Sibs and they have three children, Sam, Julia and Talia. He enjoys dinner parties, reading, dreams of surfing big waves and spending time in the Egyptian desert.
