Lesley is chief executive of Techniquest.

Between 2013 and 2016, Lesley was the Wales director for The Prince’s Trust Cymru. She led the pan-Wales operation which delivered educational and employability programmes for thousands of disadvantaged young people across the country. Lesley has over 33 years of experience, working in the fields of regeneration, economic development and planning in local government. As well as The Prince’s Trust, she has worked in leadership roles for local authorities (and a National Park Authority) in both England and Wales.
