New CEO of National Ugly Mugs
16 April 2025

We are delighted to welcome the new CEO, Lynsey Walton!

Lynsey Walton has been a dedicated member of the team since 2022 when she first started as the Coordinator on the Vocational Support Service, leading the project from research right through to delivery. She has been an advocate for sex workers prior to her journey at NUM and is deeply committed to the community we serve. As of 14th April 2025 , Lynsey is taking the reigns at NUM and will settle into the post over the coming months with support from Dr Raven Bowen, our outgoing CEO! Raven will then take on a new role as our Head of Research, Innovation and Expansion starting in July.

A few words from Raven Bowen:

“Lynsey has unwavering passion for the wellbeing of our members, the work we do, as well as the skills and relationships to take NUM through its next stages of development. I can’t overstate how powerful and impactful it has been serving sex workers during my tenure as CEO. Please join us in celebrating Lynsey as NUM’s next leader.“
