Hayley Furlong
Business Services Manager
Hello, I’m Hayley! I was born in Sale and now enjoy the peaceful surroundings of Stratford, where I live with my boyfriend, our playful puppy Pippa, and our fluffy cat Trixie.
Photography is one of my greatest passions, and I run my own small photography business on the side. Capturing special moments brings me so much joy, just as working with people has throughout my career.
I’ve spent most of my professional life in Local Government, particularly in the Community Wellbeing sector, where I specialised in coordinating Aged and Disability Care services. Helping others and making a positive impact on their lives has always been greatly fulfilling for me.
It’s truly an honour to be part of the team at Ashleigh House, working alongside such dedicated and compassionate people. I look forward to contributing to the well-being of our residents and continuing to create a warm and welcoming environment for everyone
