Meet Our Team

Management team
Expertise, experience and a jolly nice bunch!

Josie Fray
Director
I have a degree in Deaf Studies, a Diploma of Social Work, NVQ 6 in British Sign Language, NVQ 6 in BSL-English Interpreting, Level 4 Deafblind Assessor Certificate, City and Guilds PTLLS in Lip-reading teaching and Level 2 Communicating and Guiding with Deafblind people. You could say that I am a passionate advocate for people with sensory needs. I firmly believe that everyone has a right to live their lives independently. As the owner of this small company I continuously look to improve the services of Indigo Access and promote my team’s welfare.

Eleanor Wylder
Operational Contracts Manager
I am the friendly voice at the end of the phone and the first point of contact for our customers. Moreover I skillfully manage the day to day contracts with our partners. I am responsible for supervising all of our established specialist support workers. As well as continuing to keep a close eye on our lone workers and their welfare. Recently I have qualified as a Mental Health First Aider. Additionally, I have personal experience of living with family members who have hearing loss, and undertook BSL stage 1 when I was 12 years old.

Ashlyn Fray
Social Media and Content Manager
I am thrilled to be involved in increasing the social media content for Indigo Access. I am determined to increase our followers on Instagram and Facebook by showcasing the variety of work we do and the quality of services we provide. The world of sensory needs is huge and as such I am looking to post as much interesting information as possible about sensory needs.

Specialist Support Workers
Communicator Guides

Anthony White
Specialist Support Worker
I have been with Indigo Access since 2016 and I am a great example of how the in-house training course works, as in all honesty I would not have thought of this career before. Since starting with the company I have completed a number of CPD courses and passed the Signature level 2 Communicating and Guiding course. I am now responsible for the in-house mobility training for new recruits and I sit on the interview panel. Working at Indigo Access is important to me because it’s nice to see the difference you make in that person’s life. Some customers do not want to work with women, so without me some work could not be fulfilled. I really enjoy guiding people so they can access their community.

Sarah White
Specialist Support Worker
I am a qualified Communicator Guide and work in the Maidenhead area. I enjoy working with older people and provide access to communication, mobility and information. I am also part of the team who nutures our work experience students, which gives me the opportunity to showcase the work that we provide in Berkshire.

Joelle Pugh
Specialist Support Worker
I am a qualified Communicator Guide and working for Indigo Access is great! From the rewarding work we do with customers, who really enjoy the service and the independence it gives them, to the great in-house training and support we receive. As a working Mum I really do get a great work/life balance. Whilst lone working, the monthly supervision and daily contact means I always feel supported. I highly recommend it!

Vicki McVeigh
Specialist Support Worker
I work in the Bracknell and Wokingham areas as a qualified Communicator Guide. I really like using deafblind manual and I am keen to explore learning British Sign Language. Indigo Access offers a range of on-going professional development and I have completed Safer Recruitment training. I feel very well supported to do my job.
